Back at the marina Sunday afternoon, only 14.5nm on this trip.
Heading back home after some WOT speed runs in Guemes Channel to test the new prop. After reading some Merc performance reports decided to try a 16Dx13" instead of the 15x15, it brought me from the low-mid RPM range to the high end of the RPM range and only a couple mph top end loss (28 mph). On last trip I noticed the boat had gained a lot of weight over the first 2 years and the waterline was never visible (I emptied about 200 lbs of unused stuff after that trip too). I may actually go back to the 15x15 for normal loads because I really like cruising around 3000 rpm.

Trail on south side of island
Sun trying to break through the haze on the South beach. This was about as bright as it got, around 11:30 AM. From here the haze only got thicker to the point is seemed like a cloudy day.
