Default CT Splashdown Updated pics

Well, I know how you guys hate a post without pics so I had to wait to get the pictures from my buddy before posting. *Last Friday Old School made her Connecticut splashdown with me and two coworkers tagging along. *The water was fairly choppy outside the Cove so we did not go far. *I forgot my camera (criminal, I know) so I had my buddy take a couple pictures. *It is not much but better than nothing. *Then on Sunday I went out with my youngest son and cruised for an hour or so. *

The Johnson 115 got her up to 35 mph in somewhat choppy seas. *Out in LI Sound the seas were decent (2-3 feet) and we stayed bone dry cruising at 20-25 mph. *She is everything willy said she was.....I could not be happier.

Very nice Whalen!

Thanks for the pics.

I know Willy has peace of mind knowing his ol' girl is in good hands (as do we...).

Enjoy your "new to you" ride.
