This is my third attempt at editing video. I'm not very good at it, but I'm still pretty happy with the result.

You've got my 2000 280BR with my buddy's 2009 240 dancer tied to the starboard side. Anchored off my port side is a friend's 80s vintage Laguna.

What do you think?

Very nice video! We were out on Lido that day too which was great until the heavens opened:)
 
Ok okay, yes Sunday was a very nice day. Late Monday it got fairly nasty, just made it back to the dock in time.
 
Very nice vid too! I see I shall have to ask Santa for a drone for my Go Pro too I'm getting behind the curve:)

Unfortunately I didn't take the video but saw the drone flying overhead and searched for it on youtube.
 
Here's our sandbar on Sunday (Memorial Day weekend). My 280 is at the 3:04 mark with the navy blue bimini.
Boy that's a lot of boats. Usually when it gets that crowded I might stop in to have a look around but then I seek out something a little less crowded. It depends on my mood. Not trying to disrespect or anything, but boy that water looks nasty. We have the cove on New Pass that gets a little dirty on outgoing tides but it's nothing like that. Midnight Pass is usually pretty murky too because it's too far from an inlet to get washed out by the tides. Makes me appreciate my pretty clear gulf waters in SRQ.

The water is brown in the summer. Nothing like Sarasota or even Egmont water that's for sure. It's close to the house and alot of our friends go there. Most weekends are busy but nowhere near the amount of boats that show up on a holiday weekend.
