You missed one hell of a weekend.

A major reason boats>wheelers are the people. I had the only go-fast on B dock. Within 2 hours, kate & I were on the neighbors Sundancer heading to deckers for dinner/drinks. Had a great time. Then came back, and the bar at the marina was packed. Saturday watched some of the races, went by the moot, then got off the water before the storm. Kate & I ended up sitting in the bar drinking Oberon for 4 hours bs'ing with all the other folks there.

It was nice to do a trip and have zero drama.....which seemed to happen on several wheeling trips.
But did you get to show everyone your balls, like on a wheeling trip?

sweet specs on mag?
Early model 24 Magnum with a pretty run-of-the-mill 370 Merc / TRS drive. Kiekhaefer tabs, Gaffrig controls. I didn't have a GPS then, but the speedo saw upper 60s several times - I suspect it may have been a little low. Name when I bought it was "Screamin Seaman", changed to "unnamed".

Main prop was a baloney cutter of unknown pitch.

My buddy's steel haul from GI was named Screamin Seamen. If I hadn't left Grosse Ile, I would be boating instead of wheelin. I liked being on the water a lot better down there than I do up here. There's a lot more places to go in Lake Erie.
