Mexico Pictures

Hang tight if you want to see pictures from my trip to Mexico. I'm going to try to get them today.

Boating Videos from You Tube

Slideshow Added

Well I just added a slideshow of boating in Mexico. It only contains two photos so far as the other couple with more photos won't be back until next week.

Back From Mexico

Well I'm back from Mexico. Lovely weather down there compared to here on the island.
We had a ton of fun for the past week. We had some Hobie Cat Catamarans that we were able to use all through out the week. They really are a whole lot different from the uno hull that I've got but I was able to get a hang of them and have just as much fun.
On the second day of being in Cancun we went on a Catamaran tour on a 30 some foot boat called the Albatros for a 20 minute sail to a reef just off of Las Mujeres for some snorkeling. We then stopped on Las Mujeres for around an hour for some shopping and then motored over to a restaurant on the same island for lunch. All was a lot of fun. Also, being a party boat we also got alot of free drinks. For $1 extra we were able to swim with a shark (nurse shark, nothing harmful) and get our picture taken which we did.
Anyway, I don't have any pictures to go with my stories yet as our camera went missing somewhere in baggage claim (I will be investigating where it went) so I will have to wait to recieve pictures from our friends. They will be home within another week as they decided to stay longer than us. Once I get those pictures though I will be posting some.

Off To Mexico

Well I'm off to Mexico for a week so I won't have anything to fill in on this blog. Check in though when I get back (Jan. 14). I'll have tons of good boating and water sports stories to share.

My New Slide Show

Well, I just recently added a slideshow of the Silent Ripple. You can see a few things that need to be shined up over the summer. I plan on purchasing some new flooring of some kind for her. I'm not quite sure what to get though. Any suggestions of what to put in would be helpfull.....first though I think I will be taking care of the more important things. She's got to come out of the water and have the hull washed. I'll have to double check the rudder and keal. Make sure everything is still in good condition. I'll also probably replace my plastic through hull with a metal one as I understand plastic isn't the best way to go.
If you have any ideas for me please feel free to email them with "boat repair" under the subject heading.
