Now now... what has he ever done to you? Why on earth would you want him to break the iPhone?

Sweet boat. Those boys will most likely become boaters too and will never forget these times. Is that a Carver next to you? I thought I saw some drool on Tony's post. Jumping off the flybridge?... what a kick in the pants.

Nice boat. Why are the boats across from you up in the air? Wouldn't expect to see that in Florida, up here in winter it's the norm. I guess they're to be worked on or get hauled out after every use?
I was at Ponce Inlet in January, nice spot, visited the lighthouse during our Daytona vacation. We went to a marina close to the lighthouse for lunch but I don't recall covered slips like the ones in your pics. It had a pirate's theme with an outdoor bar on the water....good times. I saw a Trojan docked there That I keep meaning to post about to see if it's a member's boat. Will try to get it on another thread today.
Good eye Tony!!

On the lift they don't have to worry about bottom growth, salt or electrolysis eating away at stuff. Pretty common to lift the boat out and flush the cooling system to get rid of the salt after each use. Think I have even seen a couple of guys on the forum here with F32s and F36s on lifts. We just have to worry about ice.

Nice photos - Boat looks great - and the boys look like they're having a lot of fun!
I've dove off of my Fly-Bridge on a couple of occasions. Deep water only!

Theres inlet harbor and down the hatch. I think that trojan was an F30 at inlet harbour marina. I think they auctioned if off about a month or two ago for unpaid slip fees, i remember seeing a post about it on craigslist, i wish i would have had the extra money to purchase. I believe there slip fees are like $18 or 22$ a foot, so its pretty empty.
Its all the same marina in the photos, its called adventure harbor, pretty reasonable at $8 a foot for a regular slip and they do have some huge boat lifts across the way, shoot i think i saw a 52 or 60 up on one of the lifts. Not sure how much those are to rent but probably a pretty penny.
Yea thats a carver next to me, it just showed up recently.
no diving off the flybrige yet, but one day soon.

Beautiful boat, and don't worry about the kids jumping off the flybridge. They will when they're ready, and you're not. When we first got the F26 hardtop, the 4 kids (all in or out of college at the time) bee-lined for the top of the hardtop and started launching themselves off it as soon as we set the anchor.
