Weather or Not: Don’t Let Changing Conditions Catch You Off Guard
As summer approaches and boating season begins to scale up, it is important to keep in mind how weather can make or break a day on the water. A sunny morning with offshore winds can quickly and violently degrade to gale-force winds, lightning and torrential rain - if not a waterspout. On an open boat, you are virtually unprotected, and cabin boats are vulnerable to visibility, wind, seas and control issues.

Bobby G Goes for a Ride: A Good Day to be a Dog
Tiffany and I were excited to go along on a rescue ride with Tommy Stevenson. I had seen him months earlier on U.S. 1, driving with a pup in the passenger seat, both of us with the windows down and music going. We caught each other in that quick moment - he turned his music down, I turned mine down - and we said hello before moving on. It stuck with me.

Local Spotlight: The Art of Bill Gallagher
May is one of my favorite times of the year for a few very good reasons. First, it’s my husband’s birthday, then just a couple days later it’s mine, and right after that I get to celebrate Mother’s Day. So yes, I get presents and then breakfast in bed. Hard to beat that. Safe to say, I’m a big fan of May.
