Weekend fun, and a weeks vacation.

Weekend at the Bar...........

We joined up at the marina on the Sunday to celebrate our niece's 12th birthday......and of course her BF had to come too......that left me with a slight dilemma, and that is would 540HP be enough to move the boat and the 10 occupants, plus dog!

We set off in a light chop, but sunny and warm, and headed to Bluffs Bar, not the drinking kind......to see if we could find calmer waters to anchor in.

We did just that, after pushing the engines Really Hard to get onto plane..thanks to the trim tabs for their help in this.

We anchored in about 6 feet of water, and the kids set off to go explore the sand bar....

 

 

 

 The older and wiser people aboard sat in the boat and enjoyed the sun and the music.

 

 

 And then the guys went out for a second swim later in the afternoon........

 

Although one crew mate was too pooped out to go again so slept on the front sun pad!

 

 

The Birthday girl, Ellie and her friend Ashley seemed to have a great time!

 

 This then led into our weeks vacation on board.....more to come, and remember.....
