  • On the boat in middle of the river
  • Alan the captain

Alan and I went out on the Kiwi Kruzer into the Potomac.  Shut the engine off and floated while we read and Alan napped. Perfect way to spend an afternoon. Execept when we came back, and put the cover on the boat the boat floor was so hot it made it almost impossible to stand or crawl on it as I have to do by going under the cover and put up the rigid stays that hold to cover aloft. It was 96 degrees  out, felt like 115, but the temp under the boat cover had to have been pushing over 150.
