Greetings from Southampton, NY!

Hey guys, I haven't been on the forum in a while. (like anyone noticed) Its because its BOAT (Break Out Another Thousand) Season! Woo hoo! I know I've been neglicting NJFBOA, but I just don't spend the time on the internet like when I am at home, and when I do, its on the boat forums, or email or work.

Been living out here in Southampton, NY (aka Long Island) with the family, just taking it easy. Here is yours truly (at Cedar Point) and my hard top cruiser we take all over the Peconic bays, and LI sound. A small boat, but its been heavily modified to handle heavy seas, high winds, and down pours. In fact, last season my brother and me were caught in a storm, and it was fun to watch other open boats run for shelter. I just turned on the windshield wipers! LOL!



This is the sunset from the 4th of July. We grilled steak, hot dogs and corn on the cob on the beach and watched fireworks from 5 different towns from one location that evening.



Thinking of buying a bigger motor for the boat. Right now it tops out at about 40 mph with a light load. When the water is smooth, I'd like to take it to 50 or more. What a blast! But the firebird could use some nice rims too. So what do I do? New outboard or new rims/tires? LOL!

Hate to have to go home soon. Hope this finds everyone well.

Mark
