Took the center console to Meredith Creek and Whitehall Ck with Capt Dean. Saw some sunken vessels and then went for a spin around Ego Alley before returning to Eastport

Mast reflections on the glass
Swirling sunrise colors over the Bay Bridge
Buddy’s on the Bay @ Lowes Wharf from the mooring ball
Exit Strategy after Kyle’s first turn at the helm
Met the sunrise at the mouth of Back Creek and was home by 5:50am. Took the family to the new Buddy's on the Bay @ Lowe's Wharf for lunch. Smooth conditions in both directions. Kyle took the helm for the first time on the way there and did a great job. I made the return trip at close to 40 mph on really smooth seas.

Finished putting the house back together after our July 4 backyard party. As a reward I took my daugher for her first ride on the Sailfish 2660 cc. We went out to Cantler's and back.

Throttles and wheel
The 2660 was compounded and waxed all day on June 30. Dealt with post-rain cabin fever the next day by running out to the Bay and back.

Greenbury Point before sunrise
Left the dock before 5am. Water was oily smooth with very soft swells. Pretty sunrise.
After church I loaded some supplies in the console and installed an organizer tray above the helm. Also still experimenting with the battery selector switches.

Andrew from Saltworks Marine stopped by to look at steering systems on both boats. The 33 has a steering fluid seep that is being traced. The 26 steering needed to be bled. After he left I took the 26 out for a short run in mild chop. The mid-90's temps we'd been dealing with all week dropped to 70 today for some blessed relief.

Pre-dawn
Post-dawn
I take pride in beating the fishing charters out of Back Creek on my sunrise chasing-runs. The forecast calls for some rain over the next several days so I rolled out to see what the morning had to offer. As often happens, the pre-dawn and immediate post-dawn moments were the start of the show.
A BCI happy hour outing is set for later today if the heat dies down a bit.

Cool Water Products flagpole mounts securely in your rocket launcher
The heat has cut into the duration of boat projects. Today was more about researching repairs and ordering parts and accessories. However I did receive and install a new fire extinguiser and deployed a flag staff that fits in a rocket launcher. Highly recommend the Cool Water Products flag pole and flag, all made in the USA.
At the end of the hot day we got a cooling t'storm and the skies cleared up enough for a run over to Mill Creek and back.
