Thanks for the welcome and the info. Most of my cruising experience has been on a Susie Boulevard with much taller gears, I guess. And a tach.

How come all you guys are moving out of Quincy? Is there something I should know?

We like it here. The beach is steps away, which our Black Lab George loves, Norwood Airport is close, plenty of decent restaurants and bars around. Yeah, the house is cool, in a way...being on stilts, it tends to sway a bit in the high winds during a storm, and of course, during storms the entire property except the front door and driveway is under water...lots of water.
