You have to like this lady. She always manages to do whatever is necessary.
I agree!!
❤❤Glad to see this and that you two are doing well.
Thanks ! And we appreciate you watching!
What a morning indeed! Marie...take a bow. You are unflappable!
Thank you, but not always. It’s the little things that get to me… just ask Ron!
Just got clued into your channel. I work with Carol Mallory’s stepson. Wife and I want to do the same thing you are doing. Maybe meet you when you’re in Oklahoma.
Welcome aboard!! We appreciate you watching our videos. Absolutely! We would love to meet you while we are in Oklahoma.
New subscriber! Love your content.
Thank you - and welcome aboard!!
Hairy time indeed, engine failure a few yards off a lee shore when it's blowing 20+. Happy the engine started again. BTW when you were leaving Pahokee Marina, were you trying to get off that dock without a bow thruster? I would think a good bow thruster is pretty indispensable for a single-screw powerboat.
Yes - we have no thrusters. Usually I can spring off the dock in the manner I attempted but the wind was so strong it would not let me turn the boat to starboard. I agree that thrusters would be nice but that’s a little out of our budget. 😉
Strange that you never see those kind of conditions in the brochures. I was getting nervous and I'm sitting on my couch!
We are kind of the anti-brochure type of boat 😉
😅😅😅😅😂@@CruisingThisOldBoat
Marie can now brag about how she got to play with dolphins 😅 😂 😅
Someone told me it’s not bragging if it’s true🐬
Is no one going to mention the big foot sighting on the riverbank??
Too funny!! Are you referring to the Big Foot by the swing bridge? I had never noticed it because I was always looking at the bridge. You must have a keen eye for detail. Marie went looking though and she found it. Now where do we claim our reward? Divide it 3 ways?
@@CruisingThisOldBoat yes!!!! He was so funny
Was is gunk in the fuel tank ?
Unfortunately yes - we really need our tanks cleaned out as they have a lot of yucky stuff in the bottom but there is no access port so it will be a major job. ☹️
Are the dolphins those pylons?
Oh... yes they are. 😂
Yes - you are correct. A group of pilings is called dolphins although I have no idea why. I’ve tried without success to discover the origin of the name. Perhaps someone here knows.
