Thread: First summer

    Re: First summer

    Thanks for sharing your story. I bought my Hatteras 11 years ago for the sole purpose of spending more time on the water with my family (after selling our lake house) and finally making the run to the Gulf I had dreamed about since I was a ten year old kid with a jon boat. Things didn't turn out like I had planned, but I still have some great memories. My son and I actually lived on the boat for a short time.

    Here's my then three year old at the helm and at his favorite cruising spot watching the wake. He's now 14 years old, stands at 6'2", weighs 235 and wears a size 12 shoe!

    Thanks Randy, my son and I lived aboard on and off for the summer. We would spend 4 days at a time on the boat.

    You will never forget those days. And many days will pass that you wish they were back treat with care.

    My son, now 18, starts his life on a 39 Searay in '98. He now barrows the boat and goes without me. Cherish the time with you children, eventually they have their own life, and you will be a smaller part of it.

    Great story!!

    We lived on our boat for close to 5 years from the time our 2 daughters were newborns until we decided to sell the boat (a catamaran) buy a house and put the kids in school.

    We had the time of our lives, traveled all up and down the east coast (from Maine to the Dry Tortugas), Bermuda, the Bahamas. Now our babies are grown woman and away at college.

    My wife and I are planning lots more family stuff on our Hatteras!!!
