There are certain moments that are memorable.  Weddings, births, graduations, the list is almost endless. The outdoors has its list of memorable events as well. Your first deer, first big fish, your first shotgun, these are all things that we look back upon with warm feelings. I was fortunate enough to have one of these moments last week. My wife and I bought a boat.

You may be thinking to yourself, a boat? Doesn’t this guy already have a boat?

I’ve had quite a few boats. I’ve owned the big flashy, expensive, fiberglass bass boats that grace magazine covers and I currently own an eight-foot plastic pond boat. Lately though, I’ve been in-between boats.
