What a GREAT DAY... Headed up to the lake around 9 am.. Filled up at Fullers.. Wow it stunk having to put the debit card in 3 different times...
Cool seeing SamIam in the parking lot.. Nice meeting you man!

Launched her around 11:15am and took my dad for a ride. Figured since he flew to Long Island to test drive her in 40 degree weather the beginning of April, I at least owed him the first ride.

Took off out of states landing and there was NO one out there. Did a quick ride to Melvin Bay and back up to the house. 45 mph the whole way... 3600 rpm.. ran so smooth. Just like the dream I have been waiting for for 4 years.

Came back for lunch then out again with a buddy of mine. Out of the Barber's Pole waving to Hazel, past middle ground shoal, up to Trexlers bridge..... Only like 2 fishermen out there... Needless to say covered the distance quicker then ever before...

Back up into Melvin Bay and a major rain storm was covering Red Hill.. You know the type where 1 min it is there and the 2nd it is the same color as the sky with a mist all around it... NOT GOOD.... However normally I would get the foul weather gear out.. Not this time.. I was able to make it home and button her up before it hit....

All I can say is What a GREAT day... Can't wait for tomorrow.. Hopefully the scattered afternoon showers hold off! Let me know if you are up and maybe meet up!
