we splashed two weeks ago. Abnormally high temps this weekend. Spent Friday afternoon and most of Saturday at the marina. Working on my television replacement and thinking about replacing some speakers after seeing a friend with some that had directional tweeters to help direct the sound when underway.

rack store operations started on saturday...we splashed on sunday (had plans on sat). Boat's running good. We should have gone out sooner in the day though. That south wind was kicking up some good waves on torch. We didn't even attempt the water. Plenty of boats on the sandbar, but nobody in the water. I'm guessing sub-60 water temps still. None the less, good to be back out on the water for our too short boating season.

I'm late (as usual) to this conversation, but I set a new personal record! I was in on April 9th this year. Snow was still on the mountains. Water was too cold to get in, but the air temp was about 80 degrees. Wish I could do that every year!
