For those of you up north, it was mid 80s here today. I worked most of the day but my son kept texting me about taking the boat out. So this was about sunset out of Hillsboro Inlet near my home in Pompano Beach, Fl ( Fort Lauderdale ).
We ran out to the sea bouy and came back in, rode around the intracoastal waterway for a bit, stopped for dinner and a couple of rum runners (rum floater included of course) and headed home.
It is nice having a 15 year old to drive me around.

Re: Heading out
I'd love too, but I'm a tax pro who is already working 7 days a week until our April 15th tax filing deadline. That last week of our filing season is a bitch with no time for fun.Allen Sr wrote:Hey Dennis, If he was a nice guy he would arrange a boat ride for you so you could try to eaze that itch!
Pier 66 is a nice place and overlooks Port Everglades which is the inlet south of the one in my picture. All the cruise ships come in early and depart between 4 and 7 PM. Most of the activity is on Saturday and Sunday. It's fun to watch if you have a high room balcony.
Btw if anyone has a US tax problem or question, I'd be happy to give back to the group in an area I'm far more qualified in than boating. PM me if you have a question you don't want to discuss in public.

Re: Heading out
I know you are busy this time of year with taxes, we had already planned on the watertaxi service to get around.We are staying at the marina (2)story bld.
Have a tax question, how do I get back all that they take? Actually talking about moving south to save money as Maryland taxes are increasing steadily.
Possibly see you there for a rum runner and boat talk (no tax talk).

Re: Heading out
We have no personal income taxes here in Florida. We also have 12 months per year of boating season.koviak wrote:I know you are busy this time of year with taxes, we had already planned on the watertaxi service to get around.We are staying at the marina (2)story bld.
