Default this is ridiculous

Yeah, but it's good practice for... umm, it builds character, that's the
ticket!

BTW don't use hot water on fiberglass cuts & scratches. Wash the hell
out of them in cold water, and put on some vitamin E. There's an aloe
gel with E that I use, works good on mosquito bites too.


I admit to motoring part way back (upstream - return trip).


You MOTORED!?!?!? Gasp!! Get thee behind me!
Part of cruising is to get there, time constraints make it necessary to
motor... lots of people motor 99% of the time, it would make more sense
for them to get trawlers...


The space between Tullytown and Bensalem is interesting for sure. Bristol is
a nice little town with a wharf and a park where all the people come to
watch the boats go by - very friendly and scenic.


Although it's got a bad rep I'd like to cruise the Delaware. We've raced
at Riverton and I've rowed on the Schuylkill but that's about it.

After 2 years inside a nuc plant, I'm not too worried about Salem (other
than the potential of being shot at).


That's what I was thinking of.

It's raining, dismal, and windless here now, but the boat is ready to roll.
Maybe I'll just anchor somewhere and relax.


Got some good reading material? Nothing like being on board to relax & read.
