The Switch is amazing! First time anyone in our crew had been on one, and it’s super fun to drive and easier to control than other boats I’ve driven. The flat deck in front is comfy too. We fished, tubed, and dock and dined at Dillon’s for lunch. Got the fishing gear and tube add-ons. Edwin gave a great rundown and pointed us towards Humbug Cove where we caught a couple largemouth and striped bass.
