I can’t do DS with 1 kid, how the hell do you do it with 5.
Have done DS with kids before and said never again, 1 reason I am home this weekend.

Is your boat still named?

I saw one 2 weeks ago that looked very similar to yours on the next street over from me. Had no name on it though.

I have been with them on the water , and they have it down to a system that works , also helps the kids are well behaved in the boat and on the water.

Also helps that my honey badger runs the show...... [emoji202]

We are with our 1 kid. But we are also bringing a sitter so we can enjoy the parties.
I think kids enjoy boating more than their parents. I did when I was a kid. I never had the chance to see Boats that cost more than a house go faster than some planes. But my kid will.

Spoiled brat he is! lol

See ya out there Joe. Leaving around the same time tomorrow

Good for you Joe, we are leaving our 5 at home, had to split them up between 3 different relatives because no one can handle them all at once. Lol. Leaving in the am after there all at school, should be on the water by noonish tomorrow.

That's probably how we would have to do it too....lol. Once the littlest is off the tit we can do that.

We should be on the water by 2pm. Let me know where you end up.
