Hey Ken,


Keep this up and you'll be a bionic man in no time. Hope you're up and about in short order.

wow, that sucks, I'll get my speedy recovery voodoo doll out and start the healing vibe...

fwiw, I've been working on my new to me 77 MA and have been in and out of the boat via ladder at least 500 times in this last few weeks. I never think about slipping, instead I'm mindlessly focused on what ever task at hand. I'll definitely take your mishap as a reminder to slow down. I'm no spring chicken anymore either, taking a slip or fall would not be fun.

get well soon

Thanks guys for all the well wishes and phone calls !!
This is a nasty thing to have happen ... Never ever thought at 66 would be in that category. The part I feel so foolish about, it was from the second step of an 8 ft fiberglass ladder up against the bow rail of the Seafari..
I mean what are we talking 18 inches ? Wet feet in Crocs and sweating in side
my barn with fans blowing... Ooops, slip completely go horizontal to the deck !
Thunk, crack !!
Just that fast I passed out from pain and could not get-up (Here we go )
This was around 1:30 Tuesday afternoon. Thank God Lil' Kenny just happen to stop by and found me shortly after as I was trying to at least get my self in a chair... 911, EMT's could not find me cause' we do not exist on GPS..
Kenny hopped on 4 wheeler to guide them in...

This is some bad ass pain if you want to know !

Ken,

Sorry to hear about your fall, what a bummer.

Here's to a quick recovery!

Take care.

I recently bought Merrell (tidewater, i think). Recommended by a friend who was a volunteer for Palm Beach County Sheriff Marine Patrol. Part of their uniform. Good traction, light weight, drain holes and better support than crocs. They are fast becoming one of my favorite shoes. Ordered them online- might have been through REI.

Correction:
The great boat shoes are Merrell Tideriser Sieve. Aptly named, lots of drain holes! Says Hydromorph on side of sole near heel and Vibram near toe.

They have a canvas boat shoe as well. Been wearing them for years. Plenty of traction.
