Little league deep sea trip

My son called me tonight and said that his team is going on a trip With Capt. John's out of Plymouth next month. Turns out that one his teamates is the grandson of Captain John.

Gotta give a thumbs up for doing something nice for the kids

They have a decent operatrion there, and yes, nice thing to do by Capt Johns. Doesn't hurt to get kids intersted in the party boat thing too...

I think the kids are free and I get on for a discount price of like $10 instead of the usual $25 or so, just due to the price of gas these days. Still a bargain

Don't think getting seasick is going to be a problem on a boat that size.

They're having prizes for first fish caught, biggest fish etc.
Should be a fun time for the team.

We took the MSBA juniors out codding today, weather was not the greatest, but they had a good time. We took a smaller boat so there was only our group on it. (about 30+ with adults)
Saw a whale, some mackeral, good number of small cod. and one HUGE wolf fish...Kids got a real kick out of that mean looking beast, (almost 20 lbs.).....
Only had one kid turn green and the seas were 4-5 for a while...

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

Funny you should say that Van....I had a green kid on a cod charter boat this afternoon. He is feeling much better now though.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I'm doing the same for my son's cub scout den. I'm taking them out on the Yankee fleet in june. They gave me 50% off on both Kids and adults which I thought was pretty cool...They should have a blast.

One of the only times I actually hope we get a couple of dogfish. To a bunch of 10 year olds they're Sharks
