Well, we had our trip to the Channel Club. All the first-timers were very impressed. We had great weather save a storm tha blew in for a half hour....something we can deal with. Besides the usual pool beach and restaurant, we fished from shore and my wife discovered the Monmouth Mall....go figure. Next year she wants to go to the race track which sounds cool.
It was great to meet you Bill (Victoria's Secret), when did you end up leaving? I hope you didn't see me pulling out, I had extensive use of my rubrail in that wind, LOL. But, with careful usage of the pilings I was pinned against, the rub-rail and pivoting, we escaped with zero damage! All's well that ends well.
Oh and BTW, we left at high tide, I hailed the Seabright bridge and they could handle 16' down center line at high tide. I'm pushing ~15' with the stern light over the radar so we were granted an opening...the kids really thought that was cool.
