Second photo shows Catalina Island 30 miles ahead. Big tuna just boiled in front of us.HaroldNice to know there is at least one safe place left in California, Harold! I’m guessing it’s pretty easy to social distance as well. I’ve heard that during the pandemic, in addition to increased RV sales and rentals, there has been an interest in small boats as well
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1151 – August 05, 2020, 11:08:10 pm Greg,I could never have predicted that a pandemic would increase RV and boat sales. But it did.Mooring fields and anchoring areas are more crowded than normal and lots of shiny, pretty new boats.I don't make any assumptions about their knowledge of seammanship or rules of the road...

With the limited chassis allocation, I tend to doubt that they still export. If you search the archives, there are occasional references to people seeing units ready to ship out. I seem to recall that when the 24 ft units were moved from the E-350 to the wider E-450 that they still built the Bonanza on the E-350 for the narrower body.Art

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1168 – August 28, 2020, 01:15:26 pm Thanks, Bill. Either would be amazing at this point - simply to go to NZ or even better in an LD. One day I’d love to explore the latter option... That is great to hear re photography. I’ve done a couple of amateur photo shows at coffee shops and hope to do a lot more photography when we hit the road.

I know this because I tried to get Ed to sell me one of the skinnies as I was apprehensive about driving the wide body. He, of course, turned us down. 🤨 — Jon
