On a cool summers day with a slight breeze. We arrive at the
boat ramp at Whangamata all set for a days fishing. The seagulls
squawking and the sound of constant moving water, we jump out and
start unwinching our 4foot dinghy and jump in. Andrew pull starts
the 15hp Mercury motor. I chuck in a few fishing rods and bait and
we are ready to go. Dad parks the ute and runs over and hops in.
Andrew turns the dinghy around and gives the engine a gun.
