Default Family’s first day out!

This is why I own a boat! There is no better family sport than boating. The friend with the Z302, that I mention sometimes, has been family boating for over 30yrs and his grown children and grand children still come over to boat on weekends. I see it as an investment into my kids’ present and future relationship. This is the first time my five year old has been brave enough to ride the tube with the others. This is my 15yr, 5yr, 13yr, and 11yr olds on the tub. And Mama hen doing the driving. 93*F a great day for water!

    Default Awesome!

    John-

    Wonderful photos! I agree with you on the investment in family and time... I too believe it will last a lifetime.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Yeah, nothing can beat the smiles on your kids faces and the knowledge that they'll never forget these times!

    Hey Dudders - it's our turn to "rub it in" as you've done to us over the last 6-8 months!!! Get used to it!

    "Winter" in Perth....yeah right. High in the mid 60's and lows in the mid 40's. What he needs is a good snowstorm or maybe a little ice & sleet.

    Going to Kentucky Lake in a week and a half! Can’t wait to get back on a “big” lake again! Summer seems to be flying by (to much work not enough boating).
