Thanks Joel,
Her name is Sadie, though I offen thing I should have named her Spot, short for , Spot'r, as she is mine.
It pains me a little to continue having her climb aboard, but of coarse she would not understand " no Sadie, I just replaced the Vinyl". When this boat leaves the doak she is either right there or crying in the house. Leave without her.... She'll swim out after me. she also knows this is the only boat on the lake she is allowed on.
happy boating, thanks for the 'welcome' Joel.
