Boat show weekend

I guess we didn't get enough of boats this past weekend...so we flew back down to go to the boat show that our marina was hosting. We got permission to go out over Oriental in the plane and snap a few photos (It's in a restricted airspace near Cherry Point, so you have to ask special permission - and only if the airspace is not "Hot". Wouldn't want to fly there while they are practicing shooting things in the air!!!)

Here's a aerial view - showing where our boat is and where our new slip is located. We can't move into our new slip until June 30th when a previously signed year-long lease is up. We're looking forward to getting into our own slip because it is closer to the poolhouse and restrooms/showers!



Just another boat show - but nice for such a small one. Lots of new/used boats and vendors.



They had several historical boats on display. This one dates to the 1700's.


This one looks old but is just a really pretty, new, all electric boat. They were buzzing around on them in the marina to demonstrate them...really quiet. Was a fun, short trip - we saw weather coming over the mountains and headed our way for the flight back. Uneventful but a little rainy....good, because the airplane needed a little wash!
