Took out pontoon boat and went to Piney Point. Had mom, dad, 3 siblings, wife and my 2 kids aboard. When everyone sat up front, boat was very heavy in front. Avoided crab traps and tried to fish in sight of the Ruddy Duck restaurant. Son ended up catching an oyster that is now his pet.

Took parents, siblings and kids out for a ride on the pontoon boat. Still windy that day and colder but we stayed in the creek and cruised around. Everyone got a chance to drive and look around the boat. Also connected the anchor to the line using a shackle that fit. Tied up boat so that it would stop hitting the dock.

Took daughter out fishing in Herring Creek. Daughter wasn't too thrilled and wanted to drive but not look where she was going. Explored the creek and found a good place to anchor and use the slide this summer. Need to buy anchor shackle to connect to rope.
