April 26th, 2007The Boston Boat Show
Ah, the Boston Boat Show. This year it moved to the new convention center and man was it GREAT. The boat show is where dreams are made.
Last year I couldn’t get my wife to go, this year we went 4 times and it is where all of our summer plans came together. 
On the last day of the show, after all the educating, and meeting a great bunch of guys from East Coast Flightcraft, we decided to buy a Cobalt 282.
Let the sleepless nights begin. I couldn’t wait to get it in the water. We had a plan to go early, but as we had decided to put it in the ocean, we needed to paint the bottom of the boat to keep the algae off it. Now, in order to do this, the temperature needs to be above 50 degrees. Once we made this decision it didn’t get above 50 degrees for a over three weeks. I have to say, the guys at East Coast Flightcraft were AWESOME. They rigged some heat in their garage and got it done and on April 21, we had the maiden voyage.
