We are  having a great time in Myrtle Beach.

I should have explained the picture of the screen from the last picture .

It is our chart plotter which gives us all the information that we need to travel . This picture shows on the right side of the screen, a road. This looks like a car on a road but it is our boat and usually at the top of the screen is a large red X and this is a way point which tells us we need to change course.

The screen on the left is our boat which looks like a blue bullet. It shows the land on the right side and the ocean on the right. This is our course that we are taking to the next way point.

The other screen I will show you is when we are out at night the whole screen is radar and gives us more information.

Man when I think back to the late 90's and the only thing I knew was power boats on Spirit Lake and canoe's at Camp Foster.

Bo has sailed since college when he was in CA. His room make liked to use him for ballast on his catamaran. Bo played football at Claremont so he had the bulk that the room mate needed.

More later, Butter has to go to the vet for another blood test, meeting my fitness friends for coffee at 10.

Hugs to all.

We wish all of you fair winds and clear skies!
