thank you to the 2 guys who helped me at Settlers

Glad to hear everybody is OK.

I agree with your wife--don't sell the boat. It will be too much fun.

If this the first boat you have ever owned (or your fifth) you'll likely make some mistakes.

I hope you find out who the guys are that helped you.

Good post and I hope she is alright. Good folks are those that are outdoorsmen, not all but at least most, glad you ran across some of the most.....

Best wishes
