Here's a couple of pictures from yesterday:

   The salmon looks big but the halibut seems more impressive. It probably helps to be smaller and wear a pink hat. I'm currently looking for a nice pink hat.
    Today we had far fewer fishermen but the one brave soul who launched to fish stuck his nose out front (you have to look) and then ran back to Marshall and trolled for halibut (you don't have to stay). He ended up with a couple of keepers.
   Okay, I try not to do these, but damn.... You know, sometimes you see a boat with some custom addition that doesn't look that well done but the owner is really happy and proud of it, so you let it slide. Let them have their fun. Boating is supposed to be fun, right? But every once in a while you see one that is potentially harmful or fatal. The following pictures show a boat in the terminal phase of what one of our mechanics (I can't recall if it was Jeff or Nate) called "Small Boat Syndrome". Usually this applied to boaters that wanted (or needed) a larger vessel for all of their crap. This boat has been "extended" to facilitate carrying more people. The flotation in the seats (and the seats themselves) have been removed for more room for bodies. And I'm not sure if this is a 15 horse main engine with a 20 horse kicker, or maybe it's, not twins, but stepbrothers? You make the call:
