Saw one of the boats. A Regal runabout to a bad hit with damage to mid-port.

I was wrong about the port side…it’s the starboard side. Other day was a quick glance.

Always on my toes coming or going from Shem Creek, especially at high tide, there is a potential for having several boats trying to occupy the same space…

A bad day fishing is much better than a good day at work.
