    Max and Thais are a great team in their boat and kudos to both for having another go...though I did smile when they tipped where they said you would.
    I suspect your tired of reading this, but the edit was superb.

I'm telling you, no bull, you have a great sense of humor, love for outdoor adventures, excitement that shows through. Not to mention the places you take us, where we have almost as much fun as you do just watching. Keep it up you have us hooked.
