billy bud, I live on an island in the Atlantic Ocean.

So, you look at the water as you drive over the bridge. If you boated the
ocean, you would have bigger than a 12' boat.

Oh? Well, I do also have an Achilles and an inflatable kayak.

Boy, was it hell getting all the last two Atlantic Highlands to Cape May last
fall aboard the Porta-Bote on my weigh south, but I squeezed by. The waves
were sometimes 2 feet high, cresting to 2-1/2 feet, the fish were circling and
the sky too coast to take any celestial sights.
