Ok today here in Seattle we are anticipating record heat of 100 or near there :cool: so I decided that I would commute by boat to work. I live in Marysville WA which is 30 miles north of Seattle.
Everett to Seattle
I trailered to Everett WA, 20 minutes from home, launched and at 6:20AM it was 74 degrees and absolutely calm water :thumbsup:

Before you feel too envious.......3/4 of the way in the USCG stopped me and asked if I have had a safety inspection in the last 6MOS. :smt013 I said no, and they said "well we're going to board you then and perform one to make sure everything is in good order"

Hey no big deal after all, glad I passed.
I'll get my stuff done at my desk today and then get back out in the bay to follow up with some e-mails :smt024 or posting here....then have a nice cruise home :smt038
 
Glad to here you passed!

How long did the inspection take?

Now, you just about convinced me to delay the grass cutting chore I have waiting for me tonight and take a sunset cruise...
 
It is a great commute especiallyt with this heat.
The inspection took 15 minutes.
Now a guy just came with his wife to the marina looking to buy our boat and they're going to make an offer this afternoon. :smt089

Riverrat- for what it's worth my lawn is 8" tall and drying quickly since I've been gone so much lately :thumbsup:
Boating takes priority this time of year. :cool:

Well..............is the 260DA still available?
As far as we know. These people seem like they want it now also. I have plans this weekend, man! :smt017
Oh well, I told my wife I'm not postponing a potential buyer though
 
Right now, I'm on the laptop in between the sleeper seats at Pier 66 on the Seattle Waterfront. :cool:
Just finished the bid I was working on, so I think it's time for a boat ride, right?
