Lunch break, The Bridge Restaurant on Fort Myers Beach. I thought it was pretty cool that all the systems worked well enough on the first day out that we could take the boat to a restaurant for lunch.

It's pretty close. Some prop tweaking and a few cosmetics and it'll be done. The gear ratio is 1.5
