    The boat that started it all for us

    As far back as i can remember when we first started easing our way further off shore......we thought we were the shit with a paper graph and loran...living large lol. The boat a 22 ft aquasport.....we still have that boat, sadly shes sittin on blocks and hasnt seen the water in 5 years.....but when the blackfin sank in the slip....she roared back to life after sitting for 8 years....and got us by for ther 2 years it took us to get the blackfin back into her glory...which she is.....but i have a special place in my heart for the liquid plummer.....lots of firsts aboard that boat.

    And this is what does it now

    We never got het in the wather this year, it was tough for my uncle to get down this year as my Aunt was loosing a battle with terminal cancer. We all have a new found fire lit under our asses for an offshore fix....Where once we were offshoe junkies....we were clean and um...well almost sober for a year and a half........we are ready to fall off the wagon...this is what gets us there....after set back after set back......she is back in to offshore shape.
