This was last Saturday, we had been out in the Gulf of Mexico on fishing trip with 4 people on my 21 foot boat. We had a very successful day of fishing and were motoring back in when I decided to try a video. The day was very calm (seas running 2 feet and running with us) by Gulf standards, on most days I can't spare a hand to hold the camera. I love days like this offshore, they make life worthwhile.
Any rate, for you guys who are unlucky enough to not know what it is like on the way back in from 30 miles offshore in a small boat in beautiful seas. BTW: I'm running about 28 knots here so the run was one hour just like this, if the seas kick up it can be over two.
Got a couple of other videos of the trip on youtube under TomD1999. Just now doing "baby steps" with video, just figured how to put music in.
