Default Re: Lightning strikes in coastal nj

Yes the simultaneous lighting and thunder is something you will never forget. At 80 years old going in a big flash is ok for me. Its my passengers that concern me. My daughter and my grandson are my concern. I have been off the hook and my soninlaw is texting from flemington there are dark clouds. On one of those occasions flying up the shrewsbury and my grandson is tugging on my pants and says poppop the police are chasing us. Slowed down and pointed to the sky and then to my passengers. The officer nicely just gestured to me slow down. Have 90hp on 17' aluminum sea nymph cc. I have a few friends with their coast guard certificates usually run the boat in. If conditions permit i will say to them " Dont spare the horses". Have never been abke to go full out. Tight lines walt
