U decide to sell Rhino yet.
 
Ahh, Boatpix. It looks like someone didn't want to pay $250 a picture:).
I have a few of these little copter pics.


Yeah they sent me 40 water marked pictures for free then sent the prices, I about **** myself. Ain't no way in hell I was paying 500 bucks for one photo. I'd be ahead if I went and bought a drone that takes 4k video. They can shove it.
Here are a couple more

These were taken heading up the Potomac River last summer. Doing D.C. By water is wonderful. Highly recommend.

Not mine, unfortunately. This here is the good ship Fleet, westbound on Oneida Lake on a perfect afternoon yesterday. Anybody know these folks? I was hoping I could send these to them.
 
Going south on the Upper Mississippi near St. Louis at 8 knots, with a full load of fuel and water and provisions for the Great Loop.

What was the name of the boat? I maybe able to check the owners forum and put you in touch.

She's called 'Fleet.' Registered in Canada, I believe.
 
Great sea conditions traveling between the DR and the Bahamas (2013).

WOT run during sea trial on Lake St. Clair, MI. WOT speed was 31.3kts. We don't do that very much because at WOT we're burning 65 gph. OUCH!

Going north on the upper Mississippi River, making about 5 mph the tow was faster according to the AIS. This was taken by a friend from his Gibson 47 Executive houseboat.
