Those at our membership holiday party last week met Clay and Maggie C., the new owners of my boat. Yesterday they came and picked it up on a remarkably pleasant and dry day. It took most of the day to get the boat prepped and motored over the Magneson Park boat ramp. This is where I and club members launched it 11 years ago, when Marilyn and I were the new owners. Now the circle is completed with the boat pulled out at the same ramp and passing into the hands of Clay and Maggie's stewardship in Olympia. Certainly bitter sweet for me but I am so gratified that they are local, and very excited to have the boat. I'm sure we will see them and their 11 year old son out and about in the years to come. Congratulations Will and Maggie!
PS: I'm embarrassed about the Lake Washington brown waterline. In my defense I paid CSR a couple boat loads of boat bucks to cut, wax and polish all 3 hulls less than a year ago. Sheesh! Clay will be putting on bottom paint as I never needed it with freshwater and boat lift moorage.
