Good to have finally met you Zen. We also had a good outing at Neah Bay (Lake).

My friends boat has an inboard jet motor. We got a little too close to some kelp and sucked some up in to the jet. Good thing I was wearing my chest waders because I had to go for a swim to get the kelp out of the bucket of the jet.

That story does not beat the story of some of my other friends, three boats at the same time, almost getting run over by a Russian freighter out in the middle of the Strait. I guess the freighter was so close they could touch it.
