OUCH!!! on the grounding... Glad that you, your passengers and the boat all survived ok. I have my depth alarm set for 5 feet. I get into shallow water lots of times and when it hits 5 feet I know to slow down to slightly more than a no-wake speed.. Just seems the prudent thing to do. Anyone that's ever fished Barnaget Bay ...(especially near the inlet).. knows what I'm talking about. Happy that all you lost was some paint.
Now.... You said you were out sightseeing.. so where are the pics??

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
