Looking for something?

It looks like we are going to the Atlantic City Boat Show on Saturday, 2/5/11.

It will be the first Boat Show in a long period of time for me, so long I almost don't remember going and I certainly don't remember anything specifically about going, only that I 'think' I did go and for Jane, I don't know that she has ever gone to one, but my guess is no.

We, Jane & I, will make a day of it and see if there is anything at a great price that we need for Our Boat that might be available there.

I'll be meeting with Ed, who is doing work on Our Boat, to discuss a few items that we can then look for at the Show. One item is a battery charger-inverter, so we can languish on the hook and still play our favorite music and have the refrigerator for our cold libations.

Another item we need is an anchor windlass and an anchor for languishing on the hook. Not sure about the windlass although that could be a Tigress by Lofrans and I'm thinking about a 44# Rocna anchor. I have a printouts from West Marine so I'll be comparing prices.

There are a few other items, but I'll write about what we got after we come back.

Who knows, it might be a bust for what we are looking for but as always, if I get to spend some time with my girl, Jane not Our Boat, (although a day with Our Boat is nice too) then it's a great day.

One of the things I want to accomplish on the trip to and from the Boat Show, is to see if we can come up with a name for Our Boat. So we'll tackle that as well.

I guess that it for now, so stay tuned.
