What cool place, enjoyed the video. Have fun kids!
Thanks Alan!
Just finished watching ALL YOUR VIDEOS. I really enjoy them. Especially when I watch with my 6 year old daughter there’s no cussing. We live on the west coast (southern California) and some day we would love to get a boat. We all love your channel because to us it show what real people might have to go through when owning a boat. Please keep up the great work and keep the videos coming.
This is the best comment I’ve yet to receive!!! Thanks so much! Glad you like the videos. Hope you’re able to get a boat some day!
Though our 3 kids were a bit older than your daughter when we first got into boating, we have had plenty of wonderful times together out on the water!
Nice down to earth video. I've subscribed..
Will have to catch up.
Cheers
Thanks for your comments and for subscribing!
This was such a great day. Thanks for watching.
Nice video. Looks like a cool place to visit.
Thanks for the comment. We’ll definitely head back another time.
I definitely want to go to that cute coffee shop Java Rock next time!
You got it!
How bad are the crab pots on these trips? I *seem* to remember when I sailed the Chesapeake with a buddy of mine several years (Baltimore to Annapolis and back) ago that we had to watch for pots constantly...
They are somewhat randomly all over the place. It gets really difficult with 2+ foot waves and pots that are not flagged.
@@eternitysshore We have fish nets in the bay of Green Bay that we have to watch for...no bueno if you catch one! LOL
Bummer
I came back Saturday in the dark, little moonlight, it was brutal
@@CaptainTodd I can’t imagine that.
Hi, what color is your SeaDek? When I try to explain this color, they came back with “tan”? Thanks!
I don’t have sea dek. Just carpeting. Unless you are referring to the swim platform?
@@eternitysshore sorry, thought it was throughout. Yes, the swim platform?
We’ve not yet really cleaned it thoroughly. I have the right soap etc for it and will do in the spring. So right now it looks pretty dark. Probably the walk through video would have the best view of it. Or the applying the name.
