Gotta buddy who lives in Huntington. He bought a boat,so now we can visit.

Yep-- the ocean thing is pretty cool..

Time to make some new friends and try to figure this fishing shit out..We got the drinking down..

The new ride.



Checkin' out Huntington Harbor



Full tourist gomer..


Complete with orange life jackets!



The obligatory engine shot-- Cummin's turbo diesels.. Boat skoots right along..



Back at the house for cinco de mayo festivities.


Sunset at the beach.. Not a bad weekend....

Couple in the group do. Dave (the owner) says he's going to, but he won't swim at the lake until mid July.. He's a puss, so I'm doubtful...And I'm hung up on the whole shark thing-- and being eaten.. I wanna catch stuff-- not get caught..

Still trying to figure everything out with the boat at this point.. Gps and radar etc.. We went out fishing on sunday and turned around because we couldn't figure out how to turn on the bait tank... Seems there is was a hidden Perko switch that we found when we returned to the docks.. Rookies..

It's a 30 foot Luhrs. The tower is pretty bitchen.. Could use seat belts when you get out past the break water though..:skull

I kept wondering if he was frying my nuts with the radar though??

Great pics. :thumbsup:thumbsup

Were over at Sunset. Maw here on the boards has a big Egg Harbor called Quest. Looks like he's in the same marina as your buddy.

Cool! The ocean is awesome. It's pretty intimidating but he'll get it figured out.

My buddy Dave is a great guy. If you ever see him or his boat, stop him and say hi. He's as good as it gets as a friend.

Here's a better view of his "street".. I dunno what the area is called.



Heading out his "street", I think..

Here's Dave, if you see him around. Totally normal picture BTW (don't mind the bucket of empty beers in the background..), That's just the way he rolls. :champagne:

Hard to believe he's still single. What a catch..

That's a bad ass rig right there! If we still lived in SD, I would undoubtedly have a fishing boat by now.. I'd love to go cruise the ocean and goto catalina for overnighters.. One of my biggest regrets is I didn't take advantage of that when we lived there.

Looks like he's in Christiana Bay (Heil and Saybrook streets). We used to be there when we had the 34'. Nice quiet condo's.

Cheers, Mark
