[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 434132, member: 15636"] Sure is sir ... this skiff is left in the water at the dock 24/7 from May through end of October. It's just to keep rain water out, but we'll get Summer squalls (dock is on a saltwater estuary) that practically fills 1/4 or more of the boat's capacity if you didn't keep a pump in them. Other members don't add pumps and we see 1 or 2 skills swamped and sunk during the season. Or I'll see others taking 20-30-minutes to bail out their skiff using a bucket or bailer. I don't have such time to waste, haha! Run 8-miles down river, another 10-miles East across the bay to Glostah ... and if still heading East ... you'd hit France! So yeah, I'm darn close to the big Atlantic Ocean :D . [/QUOTE]
