Well finally got the new boat on the water today. More of a shake down cruise than anything else. Took the wife along and it was her first time ever fishing. We launched at Pedder Bay and about 10 mins out she hooked her first fish. It was just a pink but you would think that it was a 50 lbder she was reeling in. She sure was excited reeled it in like a pro. Had her driving for a while, that is going to take a bit of practice. She was a little nervous and made a few sharp turns here and there that resulted in a couple of tangled lines but it was fun none the less. By the end of the day she was feeling a little more comfortable with driving and I'm sure with a few more trips she will get the hang of it. All in all it wasn't a bad day at all. Lost a bit of gear but that was more to me not waiting to get the depthsounder installed and dragging bottom a couple of times. Should have that squared of this week and hopefully it will cut down on that. We had a lot of fun and are looking foward to gettting out as much as possible.
