Didn't see one BrandGanks Trawler RV wallowing in the waves.


You should have been out on the bay Harry, it was your kind of day out
there - small craft advisories, winds WNW at 20 to 25, seas 2 to 3
feet, spray flying everywhere, just your kind of day.


We left Oxford on the eastern shore and made our way down bay to
[classified] with no wallowing what so ever. There's just nothing
like active fin stabilizers to get the job done in style. I'm
surprised you didn't get that option.


There weren't too many other folks out the


Sailboats: 6 or 7, all over 40 ft and heavily reefed
Lobsta Boats: zero
Crab Boats: 1
LTPs: zero
Freighters: 1
Tug boats: 2


Except for the freighter, we were the fastest boat out there.


There might have been a few LTP's out there, but you couldn't see them,
they 3/4 underwater. I hope they wore their boots.- Hide quoted text -

Quite frankly, it is my opinion that in regurads to LTP's, either they
were there before things kicked up, or they weren't really there at
all
