As the season draws to a close, I move Thirsty Whale to a slip a little more convenient for me as marina services start to shut down for the year. Enjoy!

Looked like a smooth transition to your temporary slip. Nice location.

I get why people pay what they pay to be in the first few slips...but I like mine, it's quieter, and we don't get much dock walker traffic since it's a shorter dock.

And snow for your last night on the boat. Perfect timing!

@WiscoBoater 8 месяцев назад

Started with snow and ended with snow! Perfect season. 😁

Always a little sad wrapping up the season. Was a good one for me. That said, looking forward to fall and winter (I'm a snowmobiler). Have a good one, cheers!

@WiscoBoater 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, biggest bummer time of year. Glad you had a good season! I'm looking forward to fall and winter as well after living on the boat all summer. Gonna be so nice to have regular indoor plumbing and a washer & dryer in house again! LOL. Have a good one! Cheers to you!

Wow, all that way without the plotter! Nice job! 😊😊 Kinda sad to see the season wind down.

@WiscoBoater 8 месяцев назад

To do such a long trip like that with no plotter, and zero planning, I surprised myself that I made it!! Biggest bummer time of the year!

18 minutes of moving the boat one fairway over...and I love it! Thanks for sharing it. I can of course empathize with the "noise and shooting video challenge" as we have the (familiar to you) Martin State Airport less than a mile away from our marina. How did it feel to operate the boat after such a long time?

I've flown in to Martin State Airport a couple of times, flying a King Air 200. Great airport! I wish I had more time on the boat that day to putter around a bit, but it was great to be off the dock, even for a short time. Man, it felt great!
