Glad to hear you survived both falls, hopefully your phone did as well! It’s all an adventure, right?

There is some wisdom to the warning 'Mind the Gap!' One thing I would like know though, did you inflate your rib? Fix the leak? I find ice packs work wonders.

I ended up putting it up on the the dock that slopes down to the water at the town landing and hanging half out the front and then filling it with some water. Then when I got underneath I could see where the drip was. I fixed it with some 5200. It's a lot better now although not perfect. I'm reluctant to use the town landing again, because overnight somebody took one of my zodiac oars, and carefully untied a 5 gallon bucket and took that too. So if you see someone walking around with one oar and one 5 gallon bucket let me know

Ohhhh .... that's a nasty prank! Do you remember when we launched the Caution and she filled up with water? I think it took a couple of days for it swell up! Too bad rubber inflatable boats don't do the same! Good luck Ted!!!

Today hopefully I fixed it. I put it up on a dock and put water in it and watched where it drained out. Then I got some 5200 at the Marine store and now it's drying and I'll try it out tomorrow. I hope it works cuz I'm really sick of bailing all the time
