All the best to you and your family.I dont fish much anymore because of my new business aspirations. When I do I have a family member I have joined on a couple of special weekend trips. Hes has a competing brand, even used it a couple of times to make sure I crank the motor and put it in gear. (three times in last 10 months). Yikes!!! Sure makes me appreciate BassCat and the BassCat family. Someday Ill be back in another boat and that Dream Boat is a Caracal/225 EtecHO G2. My anticipated window is 18-36 months if all the stars align from this business venture. That seems like a long time but gotta say the older I get that doesnt seem like a long time to me. Right now Im globe trotting way to much to own a boat. Ive been in Europe for the last month and you sure dont see to many lilly pads, grass-matts or BassCats in Ukraine, Denmark, Sweden, Germany Belgium, Netherlands, England, Switzerland and Austria. Other then that life is southern comfort normal. Although, distracted with new business venture BassCat is still in my blood. I do lurk from time to time like right now on this Sunday morning in Copenhagen, Denmark. Im taking a deep breath from a week long of planes, trains and automobile. I have one more week to go. Cultures a positively different but I do miss my Alabama green, green grass home. That connection made me think of BassCat this morning, I saw Alan Sarnas birthday wishes thread and felt the connection. To Alan, Rick and the BassCat family personalities….. Ill be back to check in from time to time. Keep it BassCat strong!Peace to all!Flyswatter
