51' of boat and 15 mph.......hmmmm, just thinking.....😁

We left around the same time. Ran around Northside of PIB about 45-50mph thru the bigger stuff (4-5 ftrs?), 60 around Marblehead, then 70-80 inside the Sandusky Bay. You certainly had to find the right speed to run comfortably, any slower was worse. I think I saw one or two boats out in open water!!! Some more fishing boats closer to Marblehead lighthouse. Windy for sure. Good to meet you J, sorry we didn't come over to check out the new ride. Had lots going on with getting the boat running and visiting other boats, etc. Thanks for stopping by to say hello.

Arriving on Sat to PIB, on one engine, so monkeying in the engine bay trying to figure it out!



Hanging at the Bay, Sat night. It was beautiful out.
