Operating questions: With a cold boiler how long doers it take to build enough steam to cruise?
When you return, do you just let the fire die out naturally? What do you do with that fire at the end of the regatta when it's time to load up and leave Winnipesaukee?
I'm amazed at how lttle freeboard some of the boats carry.

I took a good look today, looked like that boat was registered in Washington if the first couple letters WA were any indication
Great day for a cruise, a little chilly at 9am heading over but was very nice day. Followed the parade all the way into Green's basin after letting it pass at Lee's Mill. From there, cruised all the way to the other side of the lake to Alton Bay to try to grab some Pop's clams only to find out they were closed for the season already. Nice lunch at Shibly's is always a good time too.
Kid and my wife jumped out of the boat after the parade to walk around at Lee's Mills, kid convinced someone to bring him out for the 2nd year in a row after being rained out last Sunday when me and him took the car over.
I'll try to upload pics a little later.
Always a sad weekend, means that the boat gets put away soon now.
