mac saves the day
My wife and i just had another great mac day, took our friends out to see the whales and we did not disapoint whales everywhere then we took them into a favorite spot in the bay where we have found tons of turtles. we snorkled for a couple of hours found turtles eels and for the finalley some mantarays that where more than accomidating to let us swim with and photograph them, thinking that we had a full day of awe and experience we were motoring home when another sailboat waved us to them seems there was no wind and there 24 foot sailboat was going nowhere fast so they threw us a line and we towed them back to there marina. Gratification after gratification our friends had a fantastic time and the sailors we helped were also impressed with our Mac.

Nice, but you're swimming with the the Manta Ray's, and I'm looking out the window at the additional 3" of snow we had last night

Ray,
Trust me...you don't want to know. I am pretty sure it's one of those places where the weather is always nice...and I am not referring to Florida.

Hey Tom, update your profile to show that you are in Hawaii, so everyone can be more jealous.

Thank you so much...as I look out at ANOTHER 2-3 inches of global warming accumulating on my walk and driveway.

Re: mac saves the day
Wow, Tom, what a fantastic day trip out on your Mac ! Say, you could turn your Mac into a real money making venture by booking day tours on your Mac through local travel agents & hotel concierges. Of course you'll probably have to get a Captains License & commercial vessel insurance coverage but at least it's food for thought. I can see the ad clearly : Paradise Sail w/ Capt. Tom
Ok, so where do us guys from PA register for the 1st tour ?
Please send Full Color Brochures ! Or at least POST pic's !
Tom, you made my day.... I hate the snow .
