Well, we're down to three boats, Fishing Boat, Cruiser, Rubber
Dinghy.

My wife does indeed accompany me on occasion, but this has been a
very very busy "academic" summer for her and it will continue
through Thanksgiving, so she only came out about a half-dozen times.

We boat mostly in Chesapeake Bay and its environs, though we did
make some trips down to the Atlantic.

Sooooo, do "some trips" down *TO* the Atlantic qualify you as a
bluewater boater, or are you mostly an "inland boater" who cracks you
up? And oh yes, do tell us about that fabulous 36' Zimmermanlike Lobsta
boat.
