Monday’s weather looking right……
Very, very nice! Congratulations on checking off a bucket list item and fullfilling a dream. I'm anxious to see some tailwalking billfish pictures.
Beautiful boat, congratulations!
Saw you easing down Adams Creek. Was going to call, but realized I may have had one too many libations to carry in an intelligent conversation about how good she looks!
Did your survey not find he covering board issue? Or you just now fixing it?

It wasn't a problem in June of 2024 when we surveyed it. There were a few small cracks in the paint and rainwater was able to get in. The plywood rotted right under the paint, but the rot stopped at the epoxy.
We were hoping to get on the sailfish last Saturday, one last time before they headed south, but that turbo went out in front of Fort Sumter.
Covering board almost ready for topcoat.

The original owner of my boat was Phillip Barney.
Philip C. Barney of Hartford, Connecticut, was one of the key sportsmen and founders who helped establish Ducks Unlimited. Founded in 1937 during the Dust Bowl to protect North American waterfowl habitats, it was formed by a group of dedicated hunters in response to plummeting duck populations, according to the Ducks Unlimited website.
Key details about the founding:
Founder: Philip C. Barney was among the early leaders and founders.
Origins: The group was founded following a meeting at the Chicago Club, which included other influential conservationists like John B. Coleman, Dr. James C. Clark, and others, notes the Ducks Unlimited Canada website.
Mission: Founded during the 1930s "Dust Bowl" era to combat the destruction of critical wetland habitat.
Saw the boat yesterday. Looks like it is coming along nicely. I didn’t know you were keeping it there but I saw the name and remembered the thread. My buddys boat is 2 slips up from you closer to the ramp.
