Lyman? You said Lyman? Beautiful boats. I grew up where they were built.
Maybe someday I'll have one myself.

sorry to hear that man, time to drink and play music in the berth


Well, at least we had a great day on the water yesterday. Heck, I
even drove the single screw Lyman from the beach to the marina and
docked her flawlessly.

You must be from the Sandusky, Ohio area.

The old Lyman factory is now a restaurant, bar and marina.

My friend's Lyman is docked at the same slip and same marina
(http://www.romps.com) since it was built........with 3 previous owners. We
dock near them.

Yeah, I grew up near Lakeside/Marblehead. Vermillion has grown in number
of marinas since I was a kid.I remember when Copper Kettle opened.
Parents knew him. He used to launch his boat at the marina we were at
then he opened his own. That seemed to get the juices flowing as other
marinas started opening in that area.

Parents still live in Avon Lake. Me? I'm down here on salt water in Va
Beach. Then again weather is nicer down here.

Karma. Bad karma. You're finally paying for being you.

LOL!

I've been off work the past two days in anticipation of a boat trip to the
Keys. Wind is blowing 20-25 knots out of the east, stacking the seas up
7-10 feet. Getting down there isn't a problem, because I can hug the coast
line where seas are less than 2'. But who wants to sit on a boat at a dock
for 3 days, when your goal is to go fishing?

We're leaving tomorrow...and staying through Tuesday instead of Monday.
Seas are predicted to be 4-6 feet, which isn't great...but my freezer is
bare.

Rain will clear out by early morning............I will be taking my son out
tomorrow for a refresher of boat operations/safety including docking and
anchoring in shallow water. We did this 4 or 5 times last year after he
received his boating safety certification (via in class USCG Power
Squadron). After this refresher lesson he will be ready to take the boat
out on his own...........he earned it after 15 years of watching and
learning from me at the helm of our various boats.

We took the boat out as planned. My son was at the helm the entire time and
had a flawless performance. He wants just one more time with me and then
he feels he will be ready to be out on his own with his friends.

It was a great day on the water today!

Time to cook the ribeyes.........yum, yum.
