I have a friend from whom several women friends and I rent a boat. We go out along the Jersey shore monthly in the summer. We pay about 35 -45 dollars and that includes the tip for the first mate. (Michael, the captains son). His boat only carries about 8 people though and we always have a ball. It's funny, but all his buddies think we're all gay. We bring shrimp cocktail and subs (that's grinders to you Yankees), (Dagos to you westerners), and beer and wine. If we go on a night trip, we bring candles and linen and have a wonderful dinner from what each person brings.

We have caught many fish and we share them, so noone goes away empty handed.

Woman can be so much more civilized.

Well, anyway, Bert, we can get him, but we have to book him in February or he's all booked up. It's only eight people at a time because it's a small boat. I don't like the big charters. Everyone just throws up and gets their lines tangled.

Love, annamill
