Veeeeeeeeeeery Nice, CONGRATS and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!
 
WOW, that is sweet!

Congrats on the new boat. Mine would fit across your swim platform!
 
I certainly hope you are going to change the name!!!
 
Thanks everyone! I am now getting excited. It is just starting to hit me. But I am sad to see our Carver Montego go. Very many fond memories. Both Madison and Ethan were born on the boat. Many a great party weekends. Well, I gues that mean it's time to make new memories. Yippie!!

Mike,
Yes the name will be changed. It will be Starry Night. I think that is the first thing on my list of things to do.
 
Congrats Bob!

Happy to see the survey went well!
 
Very clean looking boat. Where will you be placing the birthday candles? Enjoy it and your big day safely.....

John,
Thanks! Yes all went well with both hull and engine surveys. Hans at French Creek Marina was top notch for the Engines. Ken was also excellent for the Hull and boat. Both have excellent credentials. I would highly recommend them.

I would also like to thank Al Prisco for surveying my boat. He also is was excellent. I could not have asked for better people.
 
Good for you Bob! Congratulations!

Just sold my boat and will be shopping for another in the near future........

Thanks Pete and Chuck

Chuck very nice that you were able to sell your boat. Make sure you sent pictures when you get your new one.

Bob, I hope you got plenty of champagne to drink in celebration of the new boat! Can't wait to use the head...
 
No comment on: Both Madison and Ethan were born on the boat. Many a great party weekends. :)

CONGRATULATIONS!!! That's one nice looking boat. Three state rooms, the inside must be a mansion.

Enjoy the weekend and HAPPY BIRTHDAY...damn, my BD was Monday and all I got was a pair of shoes and a sweater! How old? Last year was the big four oh for me and I too picked up a new boat.
 
Rommer thanks for pointing that out to him. I am only a few docks away from both of them.... but we are different people.
