Wasn't that the day that you and I got to Muellers early and had pretty much decided we didn't want to go out until the young bucks (or something that rhymes with bucks) got on board and said, "What do you mean we are not going out?"  So we sucked it up, went out, got our asses kicked by the weather, the boat and L'Outrage.   Something to be said for experience and knowing when the boat should stay at the dock.   But it was still fun...   Chris D toy box eastport, md
