History on my boat.

[Ned L]

​

​ To say the least it’s been an interesting year for all of us. I have been making good use of the boat and have had some good trips. Took a bunch of pictures too, then my phone completely died in mid summer so I didn’t have any pictures to post as an update here. I still checked in here pretty regularly, but didn’t notice until today that I had a PM.
The PM is from my boat’s previous owner’s family, who I have been trying to track down for seven years. He says that he has some history on my boat, but didn’t include any contact information. So I go to reply to the PM and can’t send it because the screen is flashing with a “stay connected” pop-up screen that won’t let me hit the “post” button. So I figure I have to fill in the “stay connected” flashing screen, but it won’t let me do that either. -----(EDIT: It finally let me hit the "post" button between the flashing pop-up screen!. Hopefully I can connect with the previous owner's family.)-----
So then I figure I’ll go to my thread to post an update on my trips with a few pictures that I do have, and let the family member know that I want to talk with him. Well, I can’t do that either as I find my thread is locked.
I guess I’ll just chalk it up to being more 2020.

Use this link to check your PMs. Shouldnt be jumpy or flashing

All you need to do is PM any Mod if you find a topic of yours closed and want to add to it.

Or simply flag 1 of the topic's posts and ask it to be re-opened, this way all the Mods get notified you'd like it re-opened.

Ned - Reopened your thread. The last post was from the stepson of the PO in July, but he hasn't been back. Sure hope you can connect.

Use one of these links to work your messages without the jumps. Sometimes one works better than the other and we have :noidea: why.

All the way to Montauk? You're taking this social distancing thing seriously! :smile:

Enjoy the trip.

And apparently a bit more than planned too! It was nice coming over here yesterday, then overnight the breeze picked up from the N.E. and has made it a bit interesting between here and CT. I started heading back today, the 3-4 ft swells were ok, just sort of hobby horsing our way along. When I got about a half hour out of Montauk Harbor I got to where all the water from L.I. Sound was running out (going west) and meeting with the N.E. wind. Well, 4-5 ft breaking and confused waves was not something I was interested in with this little boat, so at the first doable chance we spun around and headed back to Montauk. Not sure I ever surfed in a 33 ft boat before, I did today. Lol
The weather doesn’t look much better for tomorrow either. We’ll see.

Here is some of the company.
