    It’s a BBB - Beautiful Boat Brian.
    It must be such a pleasure to drive? Do you say drive? Just to enjoy nature, sun and wind is a pleasure. I love the water too, being born in the islands (Fiji) and spending all my school holidays on the beach- catching crabs playing in the rock pools. My son went out today on a friend’s 58ft sailing boat for 2 days. Can’t wait to see the videos and pictures. We live near Sydney Harbour. He regularly goes kayaking and paddle boarding with his kids. He’s a water boy too.
    Thanks for “sharing” your boat, Brian and Diane.
    Live free and enjoy your Alaskan Summers. ❤️❤️🙏

He just got a new yacht and has to pass his license in Seattle before being sea worthy. Thank you for the view of the water he will soon be one and possibly living near.

    Nice relaxing day fishing. Has a boat ever hit a whale or does the motor noise keep them away? I bet salmon taste even better with the colder water. I loved the shots of the whales. Having a day with friends makes the other days bearable. Have a great safe week!

    If a buddy’s dad had custom made ANYTHING for them and since passed on, I wouldn’t be using it…. No way to apologize or make it right if anything goes wrong and the item is broken/lost…..
    ALWAYS drop crab or shrimp pots before heading for salmon/halibut/rockfish, double your chances of putting dinner on the table and meat in the freezer.
    It may always rain in S.E. Alaska, but that’s why we have rain gear and the ability to fish from in the boat cabin until a strike (and the ability to hunt from a “shoot house”) to minimize time in the rain when making meat…..

      There’s always a chance but when we are going slow and they are going slow I don’t worry about it too much. It’s when we are going fast and and don’t see one in the area and they pop up in front of me, that’s what scares me.

    But also I go early to avoid the tourists and I avoid weekends and holidays because it seems like a contest with the locals and the tourist..who can be the biggest A- holes on the water.
