First Weekend with One More Girl

Post by cariedl »

Happy to share that One More Girl went in the water this weekend after an uneventful transport from Long Island to Lake Erie. After some reassembly and a few crappy weekends (previous commitments and weather) we were finally able to splash her. After a quick shakedown on Friday and fixing/figuring out a few odds and ends everything seemed in order. Charlie J made things easy for me and I've already had a few people at the marina drooling over the boat. A few pics of my family and I out running around.

Congrats. You got a good boat from a great owner.

Fair winds and smooth seas as you've become her new steward.

Good fortune with a good boat. Out of curiosity, from any marks that may be remaining can you tell how much lower the boat rests in fresh water than it did in the salt?

Ian - the boat is at Catawba Island, near Port Clinton. Let me know if you are ever in the area.

That brings back memories! Put-N-Bay, Kelley's, some winery on Middle Bass. Round House. Topless women everywhere. I lost alot of brain cells over there. We used to run a Marinette out of Catawba. Of course, I sure it's very family friendly and civilized these days...
