Maybe it's all those Key West boats at the Freedom Boat Club that get
my heart racing.

That CC in the foreground looks like mine, except for the engine and
the lack of a bow rail.

That picture was taken at Salty Sam's Marina in Ft Myers Beach which
is sort of in the boating backyard of "gfretwell" and myself.
Unfortunately it's not a very good day for boating right now:

I was out for a quick spin in the runabout yesterday but it was a
chilly 55 degrees on the water. Today is worse, much worse.


The boats run faster in the cold water! IIRC it's due to the compression.
