saturday with the gray skies and intermittent rain, there was barely a boat to be seen... sunday was a spectacular day and boating took off looking like a typical day in mid-July, lots of boats, great day to be out on the water!

I noticed the same on Paugus. Even the neighbors were quiet until Sunday. Weather is a huge factor, especially in the first weekends of the season.

Same on The Broads...Saturday was dead...even though it was pretty nice most of the day where we were.

Sunday was like a normal summer Sunday, it wasn't crazy but it was a consistent stream of boats going by.

Did see the Spiderman boat zoom by as well Sunday afternoon

Hmmm ...

My new Crownline clearly isn't as sexy looking as the "Spiderman" or you would have seen us as well (trying to catch up)

He is kind of hard to miss.

At the same time he went by we were watching an older guy in a yellow kayak out pretty far in the common boating lanes in The Broads. Pretty risky on his part, sure everyone has the right to the water and all but he should've been closer to shore...and to top it all off he wasn't wearing a life jacket !
