Default first launch

Well guys I finally got the first launch under my belt. The V-20 is amazing and we had fun fishing until the fog rolled in. We got to fish about three hours and then it was no visibility and got quite scarry. The fog came in so very fast and within minutes you could not see 5 feet in front of you it seemed. I have no GPS and thank God I took a compass reading when we left the dock/launch area. I was never so frightened since I was a kid! My two buddies and I were at wits end trying to find the channel between the two breakwaters. We finally (after about one and a half hours) found the breakwaters and made our way back into the dock/launch area. We all were never so happy to see land and everyone who was coming in was saying the same thing. I will be purchasing a GPS unit very soon!
Anyway I was only able to take a few pictures of our first trip.
