The first boat that I remember was a late-80's 19 foot Bayliner Capri Classic bow rider. Had a Force 125 Outboard. I remember my father taking us to the Weir's fireworks one nights and on the way home he left his mark on the Graveyard. It was 2AM and my two younger brothers and I were bouncing around in the boat talking to Rubber Duck on the radio while my father tried to change the prop! Since then, I hav taken over the helm...we went from the Bayliner to a 1979 Trojan Houseboat "Poor House" (lived at Handy Landing in the Weir's Channel for years) to a 31' Chris "It's All I Could Afford", and now the 51' Bluewater "Manitou".
