The Back Cove 30
The Back Cove 34
The Pioneer 222 Venture
The style of the Down East lobster boat is closely
associated with Maine's proud boat building heritage.
The 30 is a grand example of everything that makes
the Down East lobster boat a work of art. She has a
traditional spoon bow and her transom is gently sloped:
a style that will turn heads in any harbor she enters.
A cruising yacht was created with the same simple features, usability and low maintenance, which
have helped build the popularity of the Back Cove
brand. With input from many of boat owners, the
builder created a yacht which offers tremendous
value, great style and modern practicality.
From water sports to hardcore fishing the Venture 222 is "the ultimate family
fun and fishing boat!" With twin 14 gallon baitwells and 96 gallons of fuel
this boat is equally at home 40 miles offshore as it is on a freshwater lake.
The walk through windshield gives superior protection from wind, rain and
weather. Lounge seating, enclosed head and cockpit table gives you features
and room to entertain a boat load of friends.

409
Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349
From the very first glance, the Sun Odyssey 349
captivates with her pure lines, generous interior volume and
inviting cockpit. Designed by Marc Lombard and true to the values
of the Sun Odyssey line, the 349 is the perfect combination of performance, comfort and safety at sea. Whether in the cockpit or at the helm,
at anchorage or at sea, you will enjoy taking full advantage of this
seaworthy, stable and easy-to-handle sailboat.
During the development of the Sun Odyssey 409 the goal was clear;
take every element that embodies the Sun Odyssey range and make
it better. The result is a yacht that is undeniable a Jeanneau.
The key innovations include the complete rethinking of the deck and
sail plans to make this boat, not only fast, but incredibly easy to
handle. Twin wheels and drop-down swim platform make spending
time aboard the Sun Odyssey 409 relaxing and comfortable. Down
below, the attention to detail can be felt throughout. A contemporary
interior design has been realized using the finest materials
available. Come experience this fine sailing yacht.

The 2016 Boat Show welcomes you

The 2016 Progressive North American
In-Water Boat Show will dock at Cedar
Point for four days, August 25-28, with
more than 10,000 boaters expected to look
over a fleet of 400 power and sailboats
slated for display.
The show at Cedar Point is the oldest and
largest in-water show held annually on the
Great Lakes attracting boaters from
Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Ontario. Appropriately, the show also boasts
the largest in-water display of boats.
“We’re excited to have many new 2017 models arriving for the show,” says Bryan Ralston,
president of the Lake Erie Marine Trades
Association. “We know climbing aboard new
boats is the number one reason boaters come
to Cedar Point. We’ve expanding the show’s
footprint because the boating industry is having an up year and dealers need more display
space to show more boats.”
Ralston also noted that this show allows
many dealers to take attendees on Demo
Rides. “No other major in-water
show in the country has the

AUGUST 2016
Getting a first look at
many of next year’s
models is the number
one reason boaters
flock to the Progressive
North America InWater Boat Show at
Cedar Point each year.
This year the four-day
show, running August
25–28, will be no exception when it comes to
new boats getting their
first public showing in
the area. “The dealers
have been pushing their
builders to provide the
latest models available,”
notes Bryan Ralston,
president of the Lake
Erie Marine Trades
Association. “So, show
visitors will see many
new 2017 models just
going into production.”
Catawba Moorings
(Port Clinton), for example, will display 5 new
2017 boats from manufacturers Key West and
Regulator. Headlining the exhibit will be the
all-new Regulator 31 with twin Yamaha 300
outboards making it first appearance in a
Great Lakes show.
While the Regulator brand is widely recognized in fishing circles, the name of Buddy
Davis is legendary in the boating industry. Lake
& Bay Yachts Sales (Marblehead) will introduce
the 2017 Buddy Davis 28 Center Console powered by Twin Yamaha 300’s. “It’s going to be as
new as it gets,” says Ted Patrick, “because the
boat is scheduled to be completed at the facto-
the new Grady White
Canyon 271 center console with twin power, a
roomy head and pure
fishing features. “Grady
has been a center console boat builder since
1974,” says South Shore’s
Tom Mack, “and that
experience
shows
throughout the new 271.”
Regal Boats will round
out the South Shore display, featuring the new
29OBX with twin outboard power in a luxury
bowrider alongside the
new Regal 23OBX with
single outboard.
“While we randomly
highlight only a few of
the more than 300 boats
at the show this year,”
explains Ralston, “virtually every major boat
builder will be represented. Brands like Sea Fox, Tiara, Sea Ray,
Parker, Four Winns, SportCraft, Prestige,
Azimut, Stingray, Rinker, Boston Whaler,
Monterey, Cruisers, Cobia, Nautique, Robalo,
Bennington, Moomba, Lund and many more.”
New boats may get the spotlight, but a very
popular part of this show is the select number
of quality pre-owned boats that are also displayed by dealers and area brokers. These
usually cover a range from 25 feet to 50-plus
feet, both power and sail.
For the latest boat show updates, go to:
www.cedarpointboatshow.com
New model premiere abound at the Boat Show
ry the week of the Cedar Point show.”
Among the largest exhibits at the show will
be Formula Boats displayed by Marine Tech
Concepts (Port Clinton). It will boast seven
Formula’s ranging in size from a 24-foot
Bowrider to the 41-foot Super Sport 40.
Notably, Formula allows customers to use
their imagination by selecting from interchangeable accent Imron colors under its
“FormulaFlex” plan. Moreover, Formula’s
“MyWay” upgrades puts buyers further in the
designer’s seat to create an individual look
with the full range of Pantone® colors.
The newest Pursuit S408 Sport powered by
triple color-matched Yamaha 350’s with
Helmaster will headline a big South Shore
Marine (Huron) exhibit. Other Pursuits will
include the new 295 Duel Console built on an
award-winning 29-foot hull, and the all-new
entry level C238 center console that boasts a
standard fiberglass hardtop and innovations
like double-wide helm chairs that convert to
individual leaning posts.
South Shore will also be showing the new
Grady White 235 Dual Console Freedom with
such features as built-in swim platform extensions port and starboard (a Grady first) and a
stern auxiliary anchor storage. It will be next to

The “Mac and The Big Cheese” act is one of

Bryan Ralston, show manager. “We’re offering
visitors a whole lot more than just a great line

New leadership is
reflected in this
year’s show
Major changes, from leadership to layout,
are being made for this year’s Progressive
North American In-Water Boat Show at Cedar
Point, August 25-28.
Bryan Ralston, the new president of the
show-producing Lake Erie Marine Trades
Association, has announced following
months of looking at every aspect of this
show, a new focus will be evident to visitors
this year.
“It’s in the same place (Cedar Point’s south
basin),” says Ralston. “It’s got the same grand
name (North American In-Water Boat Show).
But the changes and additions we’re developing for the 44th annual running of the Great
Lakes’ largest in-water show will likely have
boaters saying this ain’t the same old show!”
it, so we’ve been working to get as many new
models on display as possible.”
In addition to boats, Ralston notes that
Cedar Point itself is a nationally-recognized
place of fun and entertainment. So, he reasons the boat show should reflect that
atmosphere with its own entertainment features, special events, prize contests and
hands-on activities.
For example, plans are underway for a
“Paddling Cove” that will boast the latest in
paddleboards and kayaks and visitors can
actually try them out. There will be instruction for interested newbies, too.
Fishing is a big part of boating, so angling
seminars by pros, along with hands-on fishing clinics, have been added to the show mix
for the first time. And, food is important, too.
Boaters indicated they would like better food
choices so they could stay longer to enjoy the
show and activities. Accordingly, new food
and beverage options are being incorporated
this year.
“We have dealers significantly increasing
their display space, so we know this year’s
event will be the largest since 2008,” Ralston
predicts. “Overall, we expect about 400 power
and sailboats ranging from inflatable
dinghies to 60-foot-plus motor yachts to be
on display.
“It’s all about experiences these days, so
we’re focused on creating a great day at the
show for the entire family,” promises Ralston.
Ralston and his team have received input
from boat dealers, accessory and service
exhibitors, and boaters about what they want
in the show. “As a result, we’re setting a new
course,” Ralston says.
The changes begin with the show’s footprint. The overall space plan has been modified to improve the flow of visitors both on
the floating docks and the dry-land and
accessory displays. The show will continue to
feature a variety of demo rides, but the new
emphasis will be on the display of new boats
and equipment.
“Boaters have told us that the opportunity
to see new things – boats and equipment - is
really why they like the show, so that is a
prime focus this year,” Ralston says. “We get

The boat show marks
44 years at Cedar Point
The Progressive North America In-Water Boat Show at Cedar Point is among the longest
running in-water shows in the nation. There weren’t many in-water shows anywhere when, in
1973, the Lake Erie Marine Trades Association initiated what rapidly became the largest
annual show of its kind on the Great Lakes. Not only was the idea of an in-water show pretty
new, but Cedar Point provided the most unique setting of any in-water show in America.
Over more than four decades since, over a half million boaters from Ohio, Michigan, Indiana
and Pennsylvania have attended this event.
In an interview with Norm Schultz, who created the show and headed it up for 34 years before
retiring, we get a feeling for the boat show’s rich background.
“When we started it in 1973, our thinking was simply an end-of-season clearance boat sale,”
Schultz recalls. “We hoped 2,000 boaters might come but when over 5,000 showed up in three
days, it was like – Hello! We’ve got the makings for a major in-water boat show on our hands.”
From less than 90 boats that first year, the show consumed all 300 docks and all adjacent land
space in the north basin of Cedar Point Marina by 1975. To grow the show even more, Schultz
began having temporary floating docks built to supplement the marina’s existing fixed docks. For
years, the show packed boats and displays into the north basin until, ultimately, a decision was
made to move the show to Cedar Point’s south harbor.
“Putting the show where it is today, in the south harbor, was a big challenge,” says Schultz, “but
doing it allowed us to triple the on-land accessory tents and displays, and grow the in-water
dockage to whatever the boat dealers needed. To do it, we had to build a lot more floating docks
since there were no permanent slips as there are today.
“We also had to bring in heavy permanent electrical power, transformers and a distribution system to power-up the entire event,” continued Schultz. “But it was a great move for the exhibitors
and visitors alike. When we were in the north harbor, we had to bring everyone up from the main
parking lots by trams. In the south harbor, everyone can park adjacent to the show area.”
If the move to the south harbor was historic, the dramatic change in show dates two years ago
must be considered another milestone. For over 40 years the show had been held after Labor
Day. That timing was chosen because in those years Cedar Point was only open for two bonus
weekends after Labor Day and traffic was not significant.
But the recent start of Cedar Point’s tremendously successful HallowWeekends after Labor Day
changed all that. The success of the two events, the boat show and HallowWeekends, held simultaneously created traffic snarls and delays. So, LEMTA moved the boat show into late August, away from
the big HallowWeekends. That has made it much more convenient for boaters to get to the show.

Buddy Davis CC boasts
flare and ride that cuts through
the roughest waters
See it
at the
show
In the fishing and boating world, the name Buddy Davis is legendary. Known
throughout the world for its Carolina flare and legendary ride, the Buddy Davis hull
is designed to cut through monster head seas, run on rails in following breaking
seas, and lie still while drifting in deep troughs. Proving that sheer beauty can be
functional, the Davis’ flare is not only a work of art, it delivers a dry ride. The Buddy
Davis 28’ Center Console carries a deep vee forward and the entry at the bow is definitely sharper than most. The transom has a 24.5 degree deadrise and also sports a
tumblehome hull side aft. The Buddy Davis 28’ CC is a spectacular Center Console
outboard. The 28’ CC remains the best all around sea boat and unquestionably the
very driest boat for rough water built anywhere in the world. Visit the Lake & Bay
Yacht Sales docks at the show to experience the Buddy Davis 28’ CC or contact Ted
at 419 656-0408 or [email protected].

It’s time to ban wind turbines in Lake Erie
– Part Two
By Norm Schultz
In last month’s Part One of this examination of
wind farms in Lake Erie by the Lake Erie Energy
Development Corporation, we examined the
“Blight on the Lake” this proposal will create.
We also identified the organizations behind it,
the planned sell-out to foreign interests, and the
taxpayer money needed to keep LEEDCo and its
leaders afloat.
In Part Two, we’ll examine other aspects of this
project that all those who love Lake Erie should be
opposing, and how to make your voice heard.
The idea that we can generate electricity
from the wind is not, in itself, bad. But, the
proposal to build wind turbines in Lake Erie
should top a list of bad ideas. It’s time for all
those who see this boondoggle for what it is
to take action.
Specifically, a wind farm, dubbed “Ice
Breaker,” would be built in Lake Erie about 7
miles off Cleveland. If constructed, it would
be the nation’s first offshore turbine development in fresh water, slated to be operating
by 2018. But a serious look at the project
should lead all those who value Lake Erie –
shoreline communities, boaters, fishermen
and more – to say “No!”
The group behind it, perhaps, should be
more accurately called the Lake Erie
Environmental Destruction Corporation.
They have lived off taxpayer money for more
than a decade and just got a truly fat
Department of Energy grant of $47 million in
taxpayer money. Unfortunately, this money
will move LEEDCo closer to realizing its
stated goal of inspiring more wind farm
developments in Lake, Ashtabula, Lorain
and Erie counties. Watch out Lake Erie
Islands – the beauty surrounding Perry’s

A Call to Action
So, want to save Lake Erie? Make your
voice heard by sending a simple email to
ODNR asking them to: “Please Save Our
Lake. DO NOT permit wind turbines in Lake
Erie.” Here’s the email address to let them
know: [email protected].
]
The wind industry also promotes itself as
environmentally friendly. But, there’s the
inevitable avian slaughter when whirling
turbine blades kill more than a 500,000
birds each year. It’s data the industry doesn’t want known.
A study of one northern California wind
farm found it kills about 60 eagles and 2500
other raptors annually. Last August a federal

The Avian Slaughter
the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.
Surely the latter agency should be most
attuned to boaters and anglers demands to
protect waterways from sticking industrial
complexes into recreational areas!
[
But forget about destroying the spectacular vista of Lake Erie in the name of some
megawatts that we already get from other
sources. Look at the economic and environmental aspects.
We have, for example, the world’s largest
supply of low-cost natural gas currently used
to generate increasing amounts of our electricity at reasonable costs. In contrast, electric prices are significantly higher in countries that have embraced wind power, like
Britain or Germany where households pay
three times more than we pay.
The simple truth is the wind industry can’t
compete with America’s natural gas, a reliable, clean and cheap power source that
doesn’t need taxpayer subsidies. Wind is
unreliable and, therefore, much more costly.
In California, for example, capacity factors
for the onshore windmill units have been 20
percent to 45 percent lower than normal
because average wind speeds dropped.
rity zones to protect the wind farms just like
the existing zones around power plants. But
these new bans on boating will encompass
dramatically larger areas, thus eliminating
many square miles for recreation.
The time has arrived for boaters, anglers
and every person who treasures the unbroken beauty of Lake Erie to stand up and say
“NO” to this needless environmental
destruction. And, it can be prevented.
Locating turbines in our waterways will
require approval from federal agencies
including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the
Federal Aviation Administration.
Most important, however, is that approval
must be obtained from various agencies in
each impacted state. Such approval hasn’t
happened, yet. In Ohio, for example, it’s the
Ohio Environmental Protection Agency and

judge in California ruled in favor of protecting the bald eagle under the Migratory Bird
Treaty Act. Elsewhere, North Carolina-based
Duke Energy paid a $1 million fine and
pleaded guilty to killing 14 eagles and 149
other birds at its Wyoming wind farm.
It’s particularly telling, however, that the
existing Blue Creek Wind Farm in northwest
Ohio has filed a lawsuit against the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources and the
Ohio Power Sitting Board asking the court
to block those agencies from releasing bird
kill reports. The wind farm operators don’t
want birding groups or others to get such
information.
In Michigan, wind farm developers see
Lake St. Clair as a target for 160 wind turbines, according to State Rep. Timothy
Bledsoe. He said the 40-story turbines would
be clustered together in groups of 50-plus
just three to four miles off the shoreline.
Meanwhile, New York State and the
province of Ontario smartly placed moratoriums on offshore windmill construction
after residents rejected their unsightly
views, expected property value losses and
higher electricity costs. Elsewhere, wind
energy zoning aimed at restricting turbine
locations was enacted in 2015 in Michigan’s
Huron County.

[ ANGLER’S ANGLES ]
By Richard Martin
August and September are normally hard
times for Lake Erie boating anglers. Walleye
fishing is slack with many fish in Canadian
waters or migrated east, perch fishing is usually only fair to good, and smallmouths are
holding in deeper water along reefs and rocky
shoals. But it's not a time to put up your rods
and mow the lawn, because there's still some
good action waiting. All you need to do is go
fishing.
There aren't that many anglers who simply
go fishing. Most are seeking some particular
species, but those who like easy going, inexpensive, no hassle, and relaxing action can
find fine sport on multiple kinds of fish by
heading to a handy shoreline, pier, marina
(with permission) or river mouth, and tossing
out a line. It's great for kids, too.
Several years ago I spent a couple of days
in a campground well east of Toledo, and the
first evening there walked out to its manmade lake for a little fishing. The lake had
several piers and a good, wide channel to
Lake Erie, and it seemed likely that Erie fish
would migrate into that lake each evening to
forage around its edges and weed beds. It's a
routine occurance in any tributary, bay, backwater, or marina along the big lake.
I baited up two rods, tossed out lines,
placed the pair in forked sticks, and settled
back in a lawn chair to loaf, talk to fellow
campers, and do a little fishing. Shortly, one
rod tip began to telegraph a bite and I was
into a fat little bullhead. He was carefully
unhooked with my usual care for sharp barbs
Try “just fishing”
in the dog days
of summer
on his dorsal and pectoral fins. Minutes later
another bit, followed by a two pound
sheepshead that scrapped hard enough to
draw campers from six lots away. Then as twilight deepened the channel cats took over,
and kept biting until I gave it up. Most
ranged from a pound or so up to three
pounds plus, a good little trip and a typical
example of "just fishing."
I had similar luck just last year in August
working a Lake Erie tributary, the Portage
River at Port Clinton, that poured into the
lake bearing food items as well as silt from
recent rains. This time I picked up an odds
bodkins assortment of fish that included
carp, bullheads, channel cats, white perch,
yellow perch, suckers, and sheepshead. It
seemed something was biting almost constantly, enough that I finally went to one rod.
Another good trip.
Just going fishing doesn't require much
equipment. I rig my rods with two No. 6
snelled hooks above a sinker on lines end,
keeping the hooks about a foot apart. This is
a classic fishfinder rig that works for almost
anything, and I traditionally bait with ordinary nightcrawlers. I've used other baits too,
among them dead emerald shiners, crayfish,
commercial doughballs, and leeches, but
almost everything in the big lake eats nightcrawlers and they're easy to find at any bait
shop.
You might ask "What's the point of such
fishing, except for fun and kids entertainment?" The above two reasons are good
enough, but it's worth mentioning that lots of
what you catch can be eaten, and eaten with
real relish if you put them promptly on ice. I
don't eat Lake Erie channel cats because
there's an advisory on them, but a cluster of
small fat bullheads with heads, entrails and
skin removed, then fried in smoking hot cornmeal isn't bad at all.
I sometimes fish strictly for carp, using
canned sweet corn then, and make a good
catch of 1-3 pounders. Big carp aren't good,
but the little guys can be filleted, the dark lateral line (mud streak) removed, and the fish
first brined, then smoked. Smoked carp is
good enough to be sold in stores, and makes
a great finger food for ball games when nibbled with an appropriate beverage.
Young sheepshead fit the same category,
and more than once I've mixed crisp
sheepshead fillets in with perch or walleye.
No one noticed any difference. And white
perch can be tasty, too. Just fishing is always
fun and relaxing, and when you eat your
catch, even better. Something to do during
the dog days of summer.

tenders aboard powerboats and yachts, as well as for recreation. The strong fiberglass hull in combination with inflatable buoyancy tubes gives these boats a smooth,
dry ride. The Falcon 330HT will be on display at the Cedar Point Show, shown by
Islander Marine of Marblehead Ohio.

South Shore Marine invites you to experience Grady-White’s 271 FS Canyon – a new
model that builds on the popular 271 Canyon with features that make this center
console even more fishable and family friendly. Its main feature is the versatile forward seating. Two bow bench seats convert to loungers by pivoting a pair of padded
backrests out from the gunwale. When not in use, these backrests serve as part of
the coaming bolsters. Another new feature is a full-height, wraparound, scratch
resistant tinted acrylic windshield integrated in to the hardtop’s frame. A rigging station is provided in the deluxe lean bar along with a 42-gallon livewell, rod holders,
and tackle storage lockers. A second livewell is located in the transom alongside a
large fish locker. Aft seating is provided by an easily fold-out transom bench. An
enclosed head is located within the lockable console with bulk storage and stand up
head area. South Shore Marine’s stock 271 FS Canyon is rigged with a Garmin 7612
GPS and VHF Radio along with Twin 250hp Yamaha 4-Stroke engines that will reach
speeds upward of 50 mph! An experience is best enjoyed first hand, visit South
Shore Marine at the upcoming Cedar Point Boat Show for a sea-trial or visit their
website at www.SouthShoreMarine.com.

When will
we all slow
down?
By Megan Meisler
Co-owner, Loadmaster Trailer Co., Ltd.
AUGUST 2016
[
We are already knee deep into summer. There
is always so much anticipation leading up to the
first signs of warm weather and ideal boating
days, yet here I sit writing this article on July 13th
and I have only been boating twice so far this
summer. I understand as a full time working
mother that free time is often limited and I am
genuinely ok with that. The struggle is when I
look back and am constantly wondering “Where
did the days go?”
Most of us juggle responsibility constantly:
work, hobbies, children’s activities, parties, charity events, school, church, side jobs, etc.
However, I feel like the pressure to attend each
activity and number of obligations we all feel
keeps increasing at a staggering rate. What I
crave most right now is down time: time to just
relax and be with my family and friends without
the hurry scurry of always having somewhere to
be. I would love to be able to go boating and just
cruise without stressing of having to be back
early for one reason or another.
Ironically we have a fair amount of retired customers who do not handle “retirement” well and
end up booking themselves with projects,
events, side jobs or consulting so that now they
feel busier than they did prior to retirement. I am

wondering if the new way of life is now imbedded in our DNA: something that tells us to go go
go go go, and not make rest or relaxation a priority.
My baby celebrated her first birthday this
month. As we were planning her party and going
over the invite list I caught myself wondering,
“Why do I only see some of these friends at
planned events for our children?” It is like we all
need a reason to schedule time to get together
now. We are all so busy with the daily routine of
life, at times anything different seems like an
obligation rather than an enjoyment.
These reasons alone are why I LOVE boating.
I just love it. It creates family time and molds
memories among friends. Boating is fun and
relaxing at the same time, it is an enjoyment created by spending time together, getting away
from the computer and “to do lists” and just simply being together with people you care about.
We hear customers talk about how boating is an
expensive hobby to have, which of course it is,
however I feel as though the relaxation and
excitement it creates, along with quality time
with people you love are priceless. Sometimes
we all need an excuse to get away from the daily
grind, and lucky for those who are fortunate to
own their own boat, they now have the perfect
excuse! As my father always says “The boat won’t
drive itself!”

MID-AMERICA BOATING | BOAT SHOW PROGRAM
• 7 & 5” Multi-touch sailing chartplotter
BG0395 (ENG) 11-15
For the past few years, family spirit and shared activities have faded away. Not only from
boating and fishing, but just about all activities I recall doing as I grew up and later enjoyed
with my kids.
As Captain on my charter boat, I noted fewer family groups booking and less family activities on other boats on the waterways.
After the events of 9-11, and so many more recent dramatic events, youngsters saw Mom and
Dad cry as they hugged them. Grandma and Grandpa had tears in their eyes also and their hugs
became tighter and longer than before. As friends and relatives were greeted and the hugs continued, family spirit was re-born.
As family togetherness once again became important, many of us recalled one of the best
ways to take your mind away from problems was to “GO BOATING”.
As a Florida winter resident (snowbird), I see families all around me enjoying day trips on
their boats. I saw it up close and personal when my daughter and son-in-law loaded up the kids
– two plus the dog, and made the trip south for a visit.
When they arrived, I asked; “What would you like to do?” to which they all responded immediately, “GO BOATING”. Where I winter in the Florida Keys, there are lots of choices; Fishing on
the ocean or in the Mangrove passes, shrimping, snorkeling or just cruising along enjoying the
fresh air and sunshine.
We went boating a lot and to my surprise and pleasure, my grandson did not even take his
hand-held electronic game along (I had thought it was implanted).
When I finally admitted I needed a break, the family climbed in my small inflatable and elected to GO BOATING without me.
After a day off, I loaded the group on my 25-foot center console and we all went boating
again. I especially enjoyed watching the kids point out the water birds flying overhead or
perched in the Mangroves and catching sight of fish in the clear waters alongside our boat. I
loved the laughter and cheers of
all of us together along with the absence of the 7–year olds chiming electronic game.
As we passed through creeks, ventured across sounds and headed out on the open ocean
waters, I saw lots of families boating together wherever we went.
Kids today are learning some things they did not know like, grown ups can cry, the American
flag is meaningful, hugs are fun and there is nothing better for a family outing than an
announcement of…
LET’S GO BOATING!
