GONE BOATING

 

    FOR:  OUR WORLD TUESDAY.  

We are going boating this week.   Hoping for good weather and hoping to bring back good pictures!

The boat directly below is ours.  This was taken back at the beginning of the season, right after we got here.

 

 Bill was tying it up at our dock after bringing it home (out of summer storage).  Our friend Don is in the boat.  He's always there to help!

The boats below are NOT our boats.  But they're a considerable step up from the "not our boat" that I posted about last week.  

Whenever we're docked in a marina, it is like living in the middle of a boat show.   It's fun to look at the boats (big and little) and talk to the boaters.  And the names are often  quite creative and amusing.

These boats were docked at Cape Harbor,  where we stayed a couple of days last month.

 This time we are going to a Marina in Clewiston which is on Lake Okechobee.

 

 

 I hope the name of this boat describes our trip!

Thank you to the hosts of OUR WORLD.

I too like checking out the names of the boats when I'm in a marina.

[TexWisGirl]

I wished I could be with you on board !

All looks great. Happy cruising.
Are those homes on the wharf, where you and Bill live, when onshore? I am never too sure with the RV business.
Anyhow looks if so you are able to keep a close watch on your "cruiser" or boat. I thought the nautical minded didn't like the word - BOAT! All watercraft had special names, like from the smallest, kayaks and then upwards to ocean liners or battleships!
Anyhow have a great time. Still raining here!!! Will it never stop??

I like "Two Far Gone"!

As a kid in England I could never understand why the Australians used to always beat us at cricket. When I came here - and saw the number of people who play it started to make sense!

I love looking around boat yards and harbours with all the interesting names and wondering how the names came about. Sometimes it's fairly easy to work it out, but often not. Enjoy your trip Sally, happy sailing.

[Hazel]

Fun names! Have a great time.(my phone and WIFI are down....).

[Gail]

So many clever names for these boats. Two Far Gone sounds like a fun couple. Actually, all of them do! Can't imagine how exciting this way of life is, but I'd like to give it a go! Y'all have fun and be safe!

What fun photos. I've always wanted a boat like yours, it must be so much fun.

[SandyCarlson]

Looks like a fun place!

[Kay Davies]

Definitely hope you don't have trouble at Lake Okechobee. The name always conjures up dire pictures of alligators in my mind. It's probably not like that at all. LOL
