Beautiful run... looks like the weather was perfect.  Sometimes (alot) just feel like fueling her up and doing that for a few days... talk about therapy...  

The wife and I leave for Belize, Isle of rotan and cozumel this Saturday out of New Orleans, I am going to be doing some serious "relaxing" Just hope the storms down there don't develop, of course if the seas kick up real bad, that just means better service at the ship's lounges...  :cheers:

yeah it just so happens to be the 2 days before payday so i couldnt put gas in the boat, if i had a full tank, i would have for sure ran it dry, weather was just too good 8) that prop im running bites hard, 13.5x23p OMC Renegade 4-blade. trimmed it sky high never breaks loose, seems the higher its trimmed the better it runs.
