I spent a long weekend up at the lake, my Marina owner let us use
his houseboat for the weekend, so I know I missed a lot of posts,

It helps him confirm his own good judgement in buying a smaller boat,
which for him was probably the right decision.
Well, for Harry it was the correct decision. I spent 60 hrs boating
this weekend, I am glad it was not a small boat.
That's a long time to be playing with a rubber ducky in a bathtub.
Harry,
My comment was neither sarcastic nor snarky. It was based upon you
preferring to use your boat for fishing in the Chesapeake Bay and
rivers. Since I do not enjoy fishing, but as I have said, enjoy boating
as a way to get out of the city and enjoy nature, it would make sense
that I would not enjoy a small boat. If you notice I have stayed away
from the LT Parker comments because I know you take offense to that.
Now if you don't believe anything I say in rec.boats, especially as it
relates to my boating, why don't we just agree to disagree on that
matter. There is nothing I will ever say to make you change your mind,
and it gets real boring for anyone reading rec.boats.
I played around with my Nikon 200 and Tokina 12-24 mm and took some
long exposure photos when I was up at the lake. When I get a chance I
will post them on a web site. I really don't think any were top quality
photos, but it was interesting none the less, and I am really trying to
learn and improve. Since this is something concrete you can critique, I
would be interested in hearing your comments.
