...took Sweet Marie out on the mighty Sacramento River just as the sun slid directly over the equator, announcing the season of spring.This was what I called the "Shakedown Cruise"...
...the new steering system worked perfectly (now I can even stand and steer) but I'm-a no can make-a the fish finder work yet...VERY little water in the boat...motor hums like a sewing machine with her new sparking plugs...Let's go boatin'!...

Took her for a little shakedown boogie did ya? How were the sea conditions out there on the Mighty Sack?
Didn't your teeth fill up with bugs from lack of a windshield?
...it was a howlin' nor'easter, I tells ya! The deck awash under thirty foot waves!! Sails torn to shreds! Two men overboard!! Radio out! Moose floating by, wildly thrashing their inept hooves!! And then...the abyss...other than that, very pleasant on the river...
Fish Finder? Cheater!! Cheers P-Man!!
I'll be there in an hour!
