Welp, I sure did pull today off!!!!

Nice looking "new" boat!
I launch at a small "unimproved" park next door to a small, long time marina. Met the owner as I was launching and again coming back, who's maybe 10-12 years younger than me. He saw my boat and says "that's a nice lookin old timer!"

I had to explain to him it's younger (the boat) than I am by 9 years. (It's a '59)

It started to sprinkle today about 11AM on and off and by 3:30 it was RAINING. Going to be cold and rainy rest of the week
