A Mother's Day I'll Never Forget

[Turtlesboat]

It always amazed me how much the depth could vary in the Hudson. An outgoing tide with wind can really lower the water level. We had some heavy wind and I bet if you look at the tides for that day, it was probably low tide. Couple that with a stormy winter piling some mud up... There's also crazy dredging laws on the Hudson because of the toxic mud. A lot of marinas have their hands tied on what they can and cannot dredge.

Well, the boat is back in the water and I got the bill. Does this sound resonable?
I know I can get the impellers for $156 ea, 8 hours seems like a lot.​
