Look closer, both boats that are rafted up are flying that flag!

I know both guys as they're my neighbors in the marina!
graham, tell them for me, from one member of the tribe to another, b'shalom!! love that they are flying the 'mogan da'vid'. gives me an idea for next season. :wink: if you do see them, mention that i have the original mazuzzah from the boat i grew up on mounted in the exact same location on my tri cabin. a second one, given to me by my brother, is on the entrance way to the aft stateroom.

Aaron,
When I bought my boat for the longest while I thought that this plastic box was from a defunct proximity sensor of an alarm system on my entrance door.
It was not till some weeks later when I put my glasses on that I saw the markings and the scroll inside.

Still there... i took the photo just for the post.
Drifting on down the Tenn-Tom at Columbus, MS next stop Demopolis then on to Mobile Bay and a turn to port as we head along the panhandle bound for Tarpon Springs/Ft. Myers and the Exumas for Christmas.
Just worked out my range to be just over 1000 miles so likely won't need to buy much diesel in the Bahamas.

Aaron, unless your radiation has affected you, the term is "pea green."

I might be back in the water on Saturday, with engine alignment check on or about Monday before cruising anywhere on my new cutlass bearings.
I needed a less expensive hobby, so I bought a boat!

Talking about weather what is it and conditions like up your way late April :?:
Expect to be trying to get to the Hudson river by end of April ready to transit the canal back to Canada in May. Then back down again in October.

I want to stop by on my way past all you east coast guys next year... I won't be in a Trojan so is that still OK :!:
Paul at least I'll have diesels :wink:

Ice is usually out in the upper parts of the Hudson and the canal by mid April. You should know by mid March based on the type of winter we've had if that is going to be a reality or not.

I'm a little further north than there, and if you see that I have posted that I am back in the water here on the lake then you will know the river and canal are open water. Our ice always goes after thiers.
