yup, i kept a boat north of Los Angeles, a 4 hour drive and had to learn the tides. its all a learning curve. fortunately, my cal 30 was very forgiving. we're getting ready to get another ocean boat but Nimfy wont settle for anything under 36'. (god i luv her) i catch her shopping yachtworld daily

Voyage logs, anything I repair with diagrams and photographs of the parts and pieces (and hopefully how they go back together), guest list and comments, how much the damn refrigeration guys are or wanting to charge me, cost of all other maintence, fuel, and zinc replacement. All done on a hard bound ledger, forget those pricey log things from west marine, Plus I put little stars on the dates I get lucky. Starting to look like the bleep'in milky way
