2020 boating Lake Winnebago Streich's Beach

It was one hot day and a great day to be out on the boat. We jumped on with our birthday boy friend Chris on his 27ft Powerquest. We meet up at Pioneer marina in Oshkosh and loaded up the boat with coolers and bags of goodies. A qucik smooth ride over to Streich's Beach. When we pulled in there was about 30 to 40 boats. The water looked fairly clear at first. But once in the water we found out the algea bloom has begun. It wasn't bad but not great. With in a few hours of relaxing and enjoying each other company. We had a few more boating friends come in and tie up. Overall it was a great day on the water with good friends, food and weather.

Social distance boating the new norm

Social distance boating the new norm. I am sure many of you have been itching to get on the boats, just like every year!  But with the Covid 19 and the stay at home order, I think it is 10 times worse.  We went out this last Saturday and it was very interesting.  Everyone has the same thing on their minds and rightfully so: Stay 6 feet away and keep cleaning your hands and everything you touch.  That is one good thing I guess with the boating world - it really can be your own space.  Jump in the boat with your home crew and get a mental break if only for a little while. It was a very welcome change of scenery.  We brought out a bunch of good food and some drinks. Made a little run to Streich's.  It was great to see old friends even at a distance.  It really helps to take the mental edge off.  I am not going to condone going out.  My belief is to use your common sense, keep your distance, keep cleaning everything including washing/sanitizing your hands. Use a zoom lens to take photos. Reality is we should be trying to clean and sanitize all the time.  Again just my opinion.   I am sure some of you will be mad that we went at all.  I understand and respect your opinions.   I do not take this virus lightly at all and feel horrible for the loss of life and for all the front line workers.  My hats off to all of you. 
I hope you enjoy the photos.  See Photo Gallery for more photos.
