We were at Friendship and will be at Harpswell tomorrow. Im terrible with remembering results...

 

[F/V First Team]

a lighter turn out for the friendship races than normal today, probably on account of the poor forecast which was wrong. fun times playing start boat. i'm just terrible
I will get results later, got an interesting photo from diesel class A though...

Thanks Travis, good luck today...

should be a good time then a long ride home
4 hour ride with a boat following us that only has a 3 hr tank, might just be interesting if they forget to switch to the other one

Was in Harpsell today with Don and saw First Team right in front of me tied bow off to a white DE by the name of maybe Rose Me? Did see Venom run two legs and she is some fast, had to hit the road to head back and sit on Maine Turnpike with tough traffic. Was in New Harbor yesterday and saw a 40' Wayne Beal by the name of Harvester tie up with at least 35-40 people on board. Boy can those big DE boats carry some weight.

Good weekend in ME and needed it for my therapy

Ms Rose was tied off to me, my anchor was on the stern ring so we could sit on the couch and watch the races.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Venom's second run in Harpswell

Would have gotten more photos this weekend but being the start boat in Friendship and recording with the laptop at Harpswell kept my hands full

You dont see many boats as fast as yours with full size couches on deck!

Here is a shot of us running along side in Harpswell.
