First trip of the season and new dock neighbor!!

Aqua_Aura

Got out for our first trip of the season. Yes you heard that correctly, Sept 1st and it's our first real trip of the year. Welcoming surprise at the marina is a fellow Rinker owner, didn't get to meet them yet (Their the 270) hopefully they stick around. 

The boat ran incredibly well and we were happy to be out, supposed to be almost 90 this week here.

Foggy morning. The 3 boats ahead of us are all from Portland Yacht Club, beautiful boats!

Awesome, enjoy!

This will look familiar @aero3113 Used it for the first time this morning. We have a blue theme on the boat, our french press is the same color (in the basket in the background)

Nice! How do you like it?

Aqua_Aura

It's great. I like the compact size as opposed to the equivalent Keurig. Fits nicely in our cabinet for storage. 

aero3113

Yea, it’s a great size.

Aqua_Aura

Well that was a fantastic trip! A few first, used the stove, shower and hot water heater. Shower was a little interesting but refreshing. 

And of course the coffee pot. @aero3113 have you tried the mocha pods that you add powder in the cup then the pod pours over that. I'm usually a black coffee guy but It's actually pretty good. 


Here is an odd one, I got my horn working. I was on the bow scrubbing and looked into the horn and it was filled with what looked to be cotton so I pulled it out and pressed the horn button and there was sound. Hard to believe some cotton completely silenced the horn.

Stove, shower, water heater -- first for the season, or all-time first?

aero3113

@Aqua_Aura , Yes, I have, they are good. I usually drink Cafe Bustelo in a pod I fill myself, it’s expresso ground, pretty strong. We have Starbucks and Duncan Donuts pods that are good also, usually what my wife drinks.

Aqua_Aura

Yes first of all time. This is the third summer with the boat. 

LaRea

That's a serious condition.  I prescribe more long cruises for you.

Aqua_Aura

Yes we are planning for another one next week.  Luckily my job only requires about 1 day a week right now 😁.
