    Howdy fellow adventurers, soooo...this is the 4th time I've had to upload this video due to copywrite issues. It took me a few guesses as to what the offending details were until I realized The Pirate and the Princess did such a good job singing at Karaoke...it tripped the AI bots! Remember, it's always watching now guys and gals :) So how about anyone here NOT subscribed to their wonderful shanty boat lifestyle channel head over there and do so. They just uploaded a new video, so your first comment can be something like "why you making Brenton's job so hard guys?" ;) or just tell them Wavey sent you.

    On my pontoon i was getting so much wash, i had to build a bracket with 2 pieces of aluminum flat bar to get it lower than the factory mount on the toon. But thats not near the engine. I have a Yamaha F150. That close to the motor will have so much wash i dont think it will work imho. You could fashion out of aluminum flat bar a v shape in front of the transducer to be a wedge to push crap out of the way in front of it.

    Hey, Brenton, just spit-wadding here but have you ever done (or thought to do) a US-41 "scooter travel" log, starting at the Miami southern terminus all the way up to the northern terminus past Copper Harbor, up the Keweenaw? That might be a really interesting introspective of our country.

      I've done almost all if 45 from mobile to Ontonagon. I think I've finally cured myself of really small scooter long distance adventures after key west. I'd love to do all of 41 on my ST1100. I'll work on it John. O hope you're well up there.

    Eastern Shore of Virginia is loaded with end of road towns. My wife and I plus the dogs were there early spring last year. Only down side, ticks. Me the dogs and the wife, it was real bad. Now that was from walking trails. So we just did other stuff. Like exploring the end of road towns which turned into a great time. Food in the area was lots of seafood and it was great.

      You definitely need to go to the Rainbow River state park in Dunellon. It's well worth the $2. I have never seen bass so big. Also, the king spring at CR is full of huge snapper swarms and sometimes 6 foot tarpon schools. I'm tempted to snorkel at night so I can't see the roped off areas.

    I’ve been to that Grand Marais MI town a few times. Usually ride the Lake Superior circle tour every September and we get breakfast there. Is it hard to get into and out of the kayak from the boat. I want to do that with my boat, which has a 3 foot swim platform on the back (maybe that makes that even easier ? ) anyway I need a dinghy solution of some kind
