Dockside Dave

I finally broke down and bought a boat, I bought a house on the water three years ago, and it has a wonderful dock with a covered boat space. My boat was delivered to a public boat launch and from then on, it stays in the water. I live on the inter-coastal side of the land with about two miles to an opening where I can get out to the open water of the Gulf of Mexico, my goal is to get plenty of delicious fish to have weekend fish fry’s at my house for friends. I was so happy to have my new boat, it was one of those things I promised myself but not until the house was renovated, not that it needed that much but I am a single guy and doing all of the work myself. I have had my friends offer to come help but it always starts out as work and shortly after we get started, it turns into a party and before you know it, the paint brushes dry out and have to be tossed into the trash. Most of my friends have money and say things like “I don’t get my hands dirty” and “can’t you hire someon
