Finally I wet the hull,the latest I've ever launched her. And I learned a lesson....Don't wait for the maple buds to open! Yesterday I cleaned her again and those damn buds made a mess again overnight! Anyhow she floated off the trailer with ease and she ran great. I was surprised how little smoke from last years gas there was. I did throw in some gas treatment when I winterized her and that probably helped. First turn of the key and it started right up. A short trip along the river and thru an open Blynman Bridge and a wave to the bridge tender and I was back in Gloucester Harbor.Thanks to my niece Kailey and her fiancee Seth who went along for the ride,they provided me a ride back to the boat ramp to pick up my truck & trailer.
No time for an excursion,they had dinner reservations,it was a direct ride to the dock.
