    HAHA...definitely no critter fritters! But yeah, cranking down the collar like that was not a great idea.

      I’m not sure which bothered Marie the most - the fire or the crab 😉

    The little go fast boat is a Ranger Tug 25 outboard like mine! Sorry to see the aground like that. 🙁

      Thanks for an ID on the boat. Yes, it is always sad to see someone hard aground. We know that any day it could be us - again!

    The way that guy installed that packing was 100% wrong.

      That’s what I thought but I’m not a mechanic so I was reluctant to question him. Later I wished I had.

    Shalom Hello Ron
    Rockies Boat Yard is very Shallow
    I've helped a few Sailboat get in Rockies to do a Haul out
    I hope you get everything fixed and working properly
    Cumberland Island has a good Anchorage
    Weather will be fair for the next week

      Awesome ! Wish we were there to greet you but I think we will both be in St Augustine at the same time. If you are not familiar with Brunswick, Fox’s Pizza is a favorite restaurant of boaters and is walking distance from the marina.

      Well that’s bad timing ☹️
      We are going inland on Monday to help our daughter with a project. Won’t return till Thursday and won’t have a car anymore (selling it). Then we depart south on Friday. How long are you in Brunswick? I assume you are staying at Brunswick Landing Marina?
