Vacation begins...Punta Gorda Florida

[Kevin M]

Got the boat in the water and in a slip. How the hell do you tie off a boat to keep it safe and allow for the tide change! I was so nervous overnight but she survived a storm. Got to get a power adapter for the dock power. I lost a screw where the Bimini top goes into so I'll be heading to the hardware store too! Oh we'll, glad to be here!!

Amazon with prime next day shipping is your best bet on the power adapter. Westmarine is very proud of theirs!

The Marina let me borrow one when I asked him. Said they were expensive, super nice people here at burnt store marina!

A little fishing this morning. Still unable to snag any red fish (I am really trying) but the wife caught a cool shark today. I have been in really shallow water in the flats here trying to get to the Red fish. So far, no issues other then having to jump in the water in my shorts with my wallet in my pocket to push the boat away from the sand bar. Took a nice cruise north after fishing.
