Saturday it rained, but went out with just the family for Sunday. Wife started things out with a patriotic surf.

I did a lot of work on the 360's. spun a lot, rode out another.

It sure was nice to get in all the surfing I wanted and to just float and chill in the bow. Rare to get a chance for legit downtime.

On the way back Sunday, we were pretty close to the launch and there were a couple guys on waverunners standing on a barge waving for help.
I went over and checked on them. One of the waverunners was completely swamped and neutrally buoyant. They asked for a tow back to the launch. It was less than a mile (probably about a kilometer). so I got out my line (I use mountain climbing rope as my anchor line). I originally tied it to the ski pylon, but I realized that I'd need a steeper tow angle to have any chance of keeping it above water. It kept submarining and I transferred the rope to the tower and even had to shorten the line. It made me anxious but at that point I was committed. I was super gentle on the throttle, and found the 'sweet spot' for towing it was 4mph on my paddlewheel PP display. UPSTREAM against a good 3mph current with a headwind meant that a person on shore would have been walking faster than we were going.
In the end I got him back to the launch.

Nothing like a maiden voyage on a holiday weekend. Finally got to splash this new beast.
