The never ending story

Well after 7 days of glueing. patching and cleaning the hard bottom dingy that I purchased lasted year for $100.00 . We arrived in Marathon and the bottom had let louse. It was full of water. So thank god I keeped the old one. Well with Scott's luck we inflated the old one and put it in the water will we made it to shore with Wayne pumping all the way. to many hole to count.
So Kendall comes to the rescue with a walker bay for $200.00 good deal until wayne and I got in it with two cases of beer,steaks etc. and the dam thig begain to sink.
Well we pulled into the dingy dock with beer and food floating behind us and checked the problem.
So I now have three dingys all leaking, no Inverter and some very salty steak's

life is fun as a liveaboard
