  Looks to be folded under slightly, with the shadow sort of making it an illusion.

  That was sold. About 700# dressed. No way to give away that much tuna. Usually small fish can go through a transom door, but that was hoisted with a winch up and over the side. There are 5 fingers there

  Well, I got my first ride of the year in today.  She ran great!
  
  
  

  Then I went home and got the rest of the tub installed. 

  
  

   Now heading into Annapolis to celebrate St Patty’s Day.  Busy day!

  The smile on the boat looks natural. The smile in the tub is similar to one I would make while holding a crying baby

  March 8th -- way to go!  I was always still scraping and painting outdrives in early March.  Keeping your boat on a lift must be awesome!

  28, calm now but windy later. I’d be lucky to get into the storage shed on March 8th…

  I went down to the marina today. We’re finally dredged! Past couple of years it’s been getting pretty bad in areas.

  @aero3113 we are in the process of getting our permits to dredge and I am overseeing the permit process. To get our permits the cost is $65.6K and that does not include the dredge, plus it takes 2 years to get the permits. Crazy money........

  This is a natural "land bridge" at Lake Powell.  It is underwater currently,  but was exposed a few years ago for the first time in over 40 years....

  It’s a good bottom paint, keeps most of the growth off till the end of the season. I can do two seasons with it then will need a re-coat.

  @YYZRC I hate having to deal with that with the bottom paint cans.
  Any tips?
  Do you think Home Depot or a local hardware store would use their shaker for me?

  I stirred the can real good and then sealed it back up and shook it until I was exhausted. 

  
  

  Shaking the can was more tiring than applying the bottom paint.

  I’ve had good results with Pettit Hydrocoat but before that have always used Interlux CSC. Local hardware store shakes any can I bring them but I also can use the shaker at the boatyard.

  Go to your local owned ACE or whomever, they typically do it free but I’ve dropped a fiver to them in the past.

  Eye candy for a Thursday morning.  Detailers in southern Florida make Virginia detailers look like rookies by comparison.  And you have to appreciate guys who can do this work 40-50 hours a week ... just watching them makes my shoulders sore.

  Typically you worry when someone new shows up to detail your boat. But when you see them put that setup together, you can go have a beer and relax knowing that they have absolutely done this before. That is fantastic!

  For every thru-hull, the strainer comes off to get stripped, primed and painted.  It's like nothing I've ever experienced.  Chris Bryan Boat Restoration

  18th green at the Heritage PGA tournament here in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.  Taken from our dinghy, and yes that's as close as they let you get on a boat without paying.  I had to think, briefly ... what would I rather do with a giant wad of cash?  Buy tickets to a sport I don't really follow, or buy another tank of diesel?
