Default Who went out this weekend?

What a great day in Richmond for our first outing of the season. 80 degrees, 10-15mph wind and sunny. First run of the season and the boat is running great. Hope most of the Checkmate family got out.

Weather hit low 70's just inland on Lake Michigan. Still buying necessities before this "Check" gets out though.

We changed the oil and drive oil and then had some time to burn so we went out for a few hours. It was so nice to get back out on the water. It was sunny and 80 at LOTO today. Couldn't have had better weather.
