Frantically Relaxing Never get out of the boat Admiral Registered: 02/07/03 Posts: 6403	Lovely weekend weather. And this time of year it's pitch black and cold out by the time I get home from work. Takes a goodly amount of propane to keep the boat warm in this weather too, so this weekend we're moving out of the boat for the season. Ah well, it's only 5 months or so... _________________________ Yes, YOU are unique.

boatnuts Captain Registered: 07/27/07 Posts: 126 Loc: North Bay, Ontario Canada	Sad but true, we are towing the boat to the inlaws this weekend for winter storage. It is at the dealer today for winterization. We took our last ride this past weekend. There are only two real seasons, boating season, and the rest of the year.

challenger3x2 Lieutenant Registered: 09/24/08 Posts: 64 Loc: Northwest , NJ.	Our last ride was the first week of September,, I had to pull boat early do to the water level of lake had started it's 5 year draw down,,, I keep my boat in a shallow cove she was in the mud by then anyway.. We pulled both boats and were able to take the jet skies for a last ride before storing them for season.. Sad times,,, now I need to get ready for fall fun,, storing all the deck chairs,, tables and stuff,, closing up the pool,, cleaning up leaves,, finding snow blower,,, I love being a home owner,,, There is always something to do..

GoFirstClass Boating Bum Admiral Registered: 11/21/03 Posts: 7674 Loc: Kennewick, WA	Ya know, I've heard about places where boating season ends. As I recall they call it "winter". Doesn't happen around here so I'm not real familiar with that term. Supposed to be in the low 60's through the weekend. _________________________ "Liquid Asset" 96 SeaRay Sundancer 330 I just want to go boating!

TimBob Ensign Registered: 06/02/08 Posts: 35	Low 80s here this weekend, so we will be out on the lake Saturday. Probably clean the boat and drop it off for winterizing on Sunday. Then we wait. _________________________ -- Tim J. 2003 Regal 2200 2006 Nissan Murano (wife) 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche (mine) Pirates drive ARRRRRNGE trucks!
