    Being in a shed has its own challenges. Spider poop everywhere. You will never see you boat so dirty. But lots of benefits too! Good luck

    Alligator river channel is always changing, have to be on top of it at all times. Sure would like you to visit Manteo (Roanoke Island) sometime. The Lost Colony was here. Andy Griffith is buried on his property here. Lots of places to visit. Just stay in the channel. Hope to visit with you one day here.
    Safe Travels.

    The good thing about a shed Is the boat stays cool in it's protected from the sun. The bad thing is there spider poop everywhere And it sucks

    There’s a great tool tha can save you a lot of time with the wiping down surfaces. When the pandemic hit this cool fogger machine came out, you add some vinegar diluted in water and hit all the surfaces that you’d normally wipe down. Leave all the fans on and the hvac for about half hour and it’s all dry and you can scoot. It would probably be less than 15 to do the interiors of your vessel. I’ll email you the name of our product when I get home but you can probably find one before you hear back. Timesaver for busy parents!

    This past weekend we took Gusto on a trip that had some aspects that might relate to your voyage (though in much smaller scale). We keep our boat in Forked River, NJ and took her up to Silver Bay, which is a small bay off of Barnegat Bay, a bit north of the RT 37 Bridge. While passing under the bridge, we had to deal with numerous boats that did not heed the no wake signs. In the confined space between bridge pilings, boat wakes get reflected and produce choppy confusing conditions. This is not easy when you're trying to maneuver a larger boat through a tight space with waves pushing you around, so it took some work to keep Gusto away from the bridge piling on the starbord and the boats traveling the opposite direction on the port. Also, there were some forest fires in the pinelands that border the bay, making for smoky conditions along the way. In addition, a boat caught fire just south of the bridge (we heard about it on the radio and saw the smoke plume). Fortunately the passengers and crew were all able to evacuate with no injuries. We did see about a dozen Coast Guard boast screaming up the bay as we headed south.

      Not even sure

    • @seajCharleston
      @seajCharleston Рік тому +1

      With twin engines and stabilizers.. They need to be centered for maneuvering, the fins will swing up or down as thrust is reversed and thus act against your control inputs. Your system should have a "center" setting on the panel? It can get real hairy in close quarters if fins not locked... Ask me how I know! @@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER

    Ive been watching your videos and other live in boaters on youtube for a few years now, and one thing that seems common is boat life is an exhausting lifestyle. Doesnt really seem a relaxing way of life.
    Just my observation.

So I was nervous cruising that area again, I know what you were feeling. I went through with out issue this time, because it is better marked with the red Buoys. Glad I erased those demons!
