A little over 60 degrees with a stiff breeze and off she goes. The melonseed is just a beautifully shaped boat and she did a nice job cutting through the water. Here are the two Melonseedbuld guys. Doug’s boat was finished a while before mine. I am just hoping he has some barnacles on his so I can keep up. Tom, the northern seed.

A fine WordPress.com site. July 19, 2013. 97degrees out but blowing good at home. Off to Long Pond,LKVL.Ma. Lousy ramp,all concrete and really busy, Blowing in hard! Wrestled the boat in and rigged it up Country music was playing in my head “What was I thinking” being the main lyric. Snotter adjustment seemed to be in the right direction and all else appeared ok. Off we went…omg! It is really blowing out here. Again with the tracking problem out with the stick down with the c/b….better. 8249; And he lived.
