    Last night we stayed at home hunkered down for hurricane Milton. We were in the eye of the storm.

    Made it ok. No flooding.

    Still no power, but my generator is working.

    All my boats and planes are safe


    Hope our other Florida mates are ok as well.

    Good for you, I was concerned. Lost about 3/4 of our flooring. Rood and walls in tact. Yard is a real mess. Lew

    Took my airboat and the big torpedo boat to the lake today.

    A bit choppy. But lots of fun. I let a young boy drive the TB boat as well. He did good.

    Later on I found one of the motors lost all the retaining screws to the gearbox. Back to dry dock for repairs .

    Many observers ask me if I fish with the boat. I guess I can, but once I catch anything, it will be like a scene from the movie Jaws ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

    I'm going to need a bigger boat ๐Ÿ˜

    Fun at the park. A big lake and nice day to run the boat at the Wellen Park in Florida. The owner of the bike and kayak shop took this video of my shrimp boat Capt CJ (it is a scale boat; the full boat was destroyed during hurricane Ian a couple of years ago).


    here is the link. I don't know how to copy the video by itself.

    This is a scale model of an actual shrimp boat. It was custom designed and built by a local guy ( of which I purchased 2 more from just as large ).

    The model is 48 inches long by 13 inches at its widest. It is also approx 30 inches tall with the masts.

    picture of the actual boat and the model on dry land attached.

    Beautiful model. I looks big, what is the length?
    Very realistic.
