Default Still in FL

I spend 7 months in FL and boating is my hobby hence my name. I’m still in FL getting in some last minute boating before I’m selling my boat May 4. I will get a smaller boat next October. I have several buddies that have the big ones I can go on. I did 20 lunches cruises, twice monthly parties, twice monthly boating lectures & 1 overnight this season with my cruising club. I also did once a week personal trips.
I return May 9 to Wolfeboro and my Winnie boat goes in the next week.
I’m one of the folks that got priced out of my lake front home on Wentworth. I built a new home in suburban Wolfeboro last fall. I lucked out with the mild weather. The house was basically finished at New Years and I moved 156 boxes in before I returned to FL. I haven’t stayed there yet but will May 9.
I have always lived in 2 places with NH being one of them. I have had a home in Wolfeboro since 1968 with my family. I commuted to it every weekend from the Boston area. I owned a store in Wolfeboro for 8 years. My original Wolfeboro home overlooked Wolfeboro Bay and I watched my friends go out by boat. I’ve owned 2 island houses and lived 8 years on Melody Island. When I retired I swapped Boston for Florida but still go to Wolfeboro for 5 months and Xmas for my snow fix.
I love being on the water drifting in the boards and fall foliage.
I have owned several different boats. I belong to WCYC and have had a boat there since the Club was founded. My kayak is in the garage to go somewhere
I'm a cat lover and my Avtar is Kaptain Kirk(Kirk) who replaced Katie and Ken this Jan.
