So, my dad had gotten this boat from somewhere, last year I think, for free (pretty sure it was free). It had a few problems and was not titled or register or something to that effect. Anyway, he had to put a little elbow grease getting it running and time into getting it register and "legal" (or whatever that means - Dave could explain a lot better than me because he actually knows).
So, for whatever reason, Dad and Becky have decided to sell the boat. Dave, his brother Andy, and his brother-in-law Ritchie have decided that they would like to go in together to buy the boat.
You see, I do not think Dad and Becky have used it as much as they would like to "justify" keeping it (along with maintaining it for the little bit of use). I also do not think that any of us will be able to use this boat to "justify" owning it out right individually, hence the reason (I think) the boys would like to go in together to own it.
So, Dave wanted to know how Julia would react to being on the boat. And on a spur of the moment on a Saturday, when we had a million and one other things that "had" to be done, Dave decided we should go boating. And, luckily, Dad and Becky had time to take us out. We had to run to Walmart to get a life vest for Julia. She was not fond of it or wearing her hat.
Later we went back to Dad and Becky's and swam in the pool. Julia did more playing on the side of the pool with the bucket and toys, but very much enjoyed herself. Dave also did some maintenance on one of the company vans there also. (This was a few weekends ago.)
