Chris and I hauled Impulse out for our trip home. The trip to the ramp was spectacular as Impulse was the only boat on the lake.

Chris, Tom, Mallory, Debbie and I took Impulse to the headwaters of Lake Wallenpaupack. With five onboard, we couldn't get her on a plane so we throttled back to a leisurely 6 knots to the end of the lake. On the return trip we rode the wave of a larger power boat and managed to get her launched then cruised home at about 20 knots.

Debbie and I took Impulse to Annapolis for breakfast. On the way we explored new breakwater work in Whitehall Creek. Our destination was Pusser's. While having breakfast we observed a 1970's IOR vintage sailboat sail into ego alley, then depart under electric power, as evidenced by no visible exhaust. When we departed, I attempted to track her down but she disappeared as remarkably as she appeared.

Bruce and I tested the new Ultra Marine West anchor on Whitehall Bay. It worked perfectly. Multiple drops and changing directions with 100% engagement. Previous anchor was around 50%.
