I finally lost my mind and made the jump. A bed, a coffee pot, air conditioning, and a generator big enough to drive my biggest amp...lol

Q: What kind of music do fishermen like to listen to?

A: Pond-tunes

Which music band is not allowed to perform on a Navy boat?
Maroon 5.

What did the ship’s captain say when he got stuck trying to navigate through a narrow channel?
"We’re in dire straits!"

OK, enough musical references to keep from going to BIAB forum purgatory...lol

Billy,

I'm usually looking for a way to turn the damn thing down! I guess that's just one of the many differences between acoustic and electric guitarist's.

I don't really like loud music, Bob. This is just an excuse to show the new boat. Well...it has to get through the survey. I ran the boat this afternoon. Everything is working well, so I think the deal will go together.

Very few of these boats are for sale anywhere, and generally none in Florida. This is a New England commercial fishing boat built as a sports fishing boat by H&H Marine in Maine. We have been looking for one we could afford for a long time.

I am getting old and running out of time. I want to spend the winter in the Bahamas fishing. I want to spend the last days of my active life doing stuff I really like.

Play guitar in the street in Europe in summer and fish in the Caribbean in the winter.

I have been busy making backing tracks using BIAB and other software and collecting the stuff I need.

Cheers,

Billy

A side note. My business partner and his family just got over Covid last week for the second time. They are OK. Unfortunately, this damn virus is still around and killing people. Mainly older people are at the most significant risk. So try to be careful.

Billy, I hope you get that boat and that you get to do everything on your bucket list. But if you get that boat do me a favor and don't take a three hour tour laugh

I don't like to play very loud.

When Mrs. Notes and I do our sound check, we keep the volume at the table closest to the speakers to 85dba or less. Any more than that can damage the hearing of our audience.

We are the professionals, and we feel it is our responsibility to do no harm to our audience.

If they ask us to crank it up, we will, but then it's their choice, not ours.

-------

BTW, I used to own a sailboat. It was a 24' sloop, and it sailed very well. But as they say, the two greatest days were the day I bought it, and the day I sold it.

But I had a lot of fun for a few years between those dates.

Your boat looks great, but the pictures are missing one thing—a bikini clad gal suntanning on the foredeck.
