Boat Bums, LLC

02/16/2022

It has been a long time since I have updated anything related to this page...

And after the pandemic, a personal change in plans, and a season cruising in the Bahamas on my own boat, I have decided that I am not going to keep the LLC operating- I was using it primarily as an accounting tool for my work-related trips, and I am not taking work any time in the near future.

Thanks for following along with the few updates here, and if anything changes, I'll let you all know!

I apologize for gaps in tracker coverage- sometimes it takes a while for us to notice that the batteries in the tracker need to be changed...

Well, Chucktown was a good time- Saw an old friend and made a new one. WX is clear enough for the next part of the trip, so off we go. Next stop: Annapolis!
