    Peter it was a pleasure meeting you at the boat show today. I found your comments regarding your channel interesting. In a past life I was the CMO for several companies. To that end I would be happy to brainstorm some channel ideas with you if you think that may be of help.
    Kind regards

    Old boats require constant work. The cool thing is, after a certain point, you get to work on them in really cool places.

    • @marzsit9833

    Thanks for the beautiful cruise. After the stress or your spring work it’s good to see you get to relax. One cove looked familiar to me. I think my parents took me there in 1964.
    Lady z made me shed a tear. I lost a pet this week. It’s always sad to think of our lost and very dear friends. What a great place to spread their ashes.😢

    Lady Z has a very efficient paddle style that only comes with lots and lots of strokes. Exiting a yak and getting back in are as important skills as the paddling part. Rolling practice is also a good idea.
