The "Row Boat"

Bob on the row boat

New for 2005 is a row boat. My brother-in-law lent it to me to use on the pond. It’s a load of fun. It’s VERY unstable compared to the paddle boat so I can wait until the summer for someone to take a nose dive into the pond when they stand up.

I’ve already spent a few days fishing on the pond with it. It’s nice to take out and have lunch on it. It does however tend to make you lazy and want to stop working if you go out on it.

It’s just what I needed for the pond. The paddle boat is fun and lets you get in tight places but it’s hard to do pond maintenance because there’s no flat bottom to put stuff other than in the cooler.
