Funny what you can do when you read the owners manual. The camera has a bunch of settings that do different things and so now it works great. The “point and shoot’” label is a little misleading.

These pictures are of Gordon Roney and one of the boats he built. Rebola was built in the late 40’s for Buck Mullins. She was a fixture around the Island for decades and was used as a guide boat, water taxi, probably as an ambualnce, probably had babies born aboard. I don’t think she was used for water skiing. She’s still here- you can see her stored in the boathouse beside the ferry dock.

Buck’s son Darrel dropped by these pictures yesterday. He’s been wanting to get Rebola back in the water for a few years and got a good look at what we’ve been doing to Miss Marion. the same thing would have to be done to Rebola, but on a larger scale. I think he went to buy some lottery tickets.
