Finally

I'm in.

Weymouth ramp was quick, only one boat trying to launch. His boat was stuck to the trailer because after they painted it, they dropped it on the bunks with wet paint !!!!!!! He managed though with a little help and mangling his bunk carpets.

All good, but could not go flounder fishing. Had too many things to do on land yesterday.

Let the games begin.

You launched late morning? When I was there (7:30am), dead low and only room enough for 1 boat to tie up (about 15' of dock in the water), and maybe 4' deep. Lunar low.

Got my sticker for the year so will be a more frequent visitor to that launch site. Hope I break even: $8/day or $90 for the year.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

I waited till near full tide, it was around 10;30. At least the fee is staying at 8 bucks. That makes 16 total for me for the season. Once in May, once in November.

See you out there soon...

I also have to do at least 10 launches out of Fairhaven and 10 launches out of GH! I move around a lot.

Ohhh man, I did that one year. The boat and trailer were floating, swinging around the trailer hitch......Thought it would be a good idea to hang on the side of the boat and jump up and down on the trailer fenders to break it free.......right about the time I started to think it might be a bad Idea, it broke free and I went right in the water (in april).
