Thanks for the kind words. I am really going to miss all the wonderful days on the lake. That's where I started boating as a kid and it's very dear to me. My wife and I have done a ton of exploring off the lake over the last few years and have enjoyed that so much that we want to do more.
The folks in this video are doing exactly what we will be doing, on the exact same brand and model boat we just bought. They have been extremely helpful with advice, and despite the fact that we haven't met in person, we consider them friends already.
