We had an enjoyable outing on the boat. The vessel was well-maintained, and Brandon navigated it skillfully. We spotted a dolphin and some turtles, although we didn't have much luck with fishing. Nonetheless, my daughter had a great time catching a couple of catfish. Fishing near SpaceX and along the bay was a unique experience. Overall, it was a pleasant trip!
