Took the old girl out Sunday for me and my lady's 6 year anniversary. Went down from the family river house in Dawson's Creek and put in, then went down to Oriental N.C. There was a nice chop on the river with some white caps. First time I had her (the boat) in a little ruff water. She preformed awesome! On the way out a Wildlife officer did a turn around on us, I told the lady not to turn around and look at him and I dropped the handle. Once I made it under the bridge and into the river a little ways (out of his jurisdiction) I stopped and turned around to see if he came after me and by this time he was already turning around at the bridge heading back up the creek. Even with one motor on the 27' he couldn't catch up to me. I wasn't doing nothing wrong so I turned back to see what he wanted and he never looked back to see that I returned to give in. Looks like he went back up to the ramp to wait for me. To bad I didn't use the public ramp! The only other ramp on the creek is private and just happens to be at our family river house and he didn't know I wouldn't come back his way. I think he didn't like the F.L. reg. numbers on the boat. I got it registered but haven't got the numbering changed yet. I cant wait to get the second motor on the boat, much more fun then when she will hit 65 mph +

Did manage to catch a few fish on the way back in. A few flounder and one nice trout over 18"!
