I resiged to that fact several years ago too Steve. I love the beach and have been a MBBA member for 20 some odd years but have not put a vehicle on the sand in several years. I just wasn't catching that much and when I moved off Cape and had to drive an hour or so you can get pretty tired of getting skunked. I just now prefer to fish from the boat. That is why I own 2 boats. I love my 14' tin boat and would never give it up, sorry BM, I have more fun in that thing than any boat I have owned. People told me to sell the thing when I got my 19 footer and I said are you crazy, never. I just like to fish and am not caught up in the beach vs boat stuff. To each his own. I like both but fish from boat 80% of time and enjoy it more and that is what it is all about for me enjoyment. Perfect example I went to Barnstable last nite and fished from shore and got nutin. Perfect nite and tide to drift eels but my truck in shop and couldn't get the tin boat to the water. I know there were bass in that channel too because a guy came in with fish that he got in a tin boat. BTW I would like to mention another original Worcester guy who lives in Sandwich for many years. #^&#^&#^&#^& Cook. To me one of the best. Paul
