If your going to be cold on sat, we will get it by the next day.

I have not "summerized" the boat yet, and no plans to till we get some warmer weather, and warmer water. I will most likely spend time working on projects/improvements for next few weeks. I have been wanting to get some LED lighting installed.

One word sums it up..... CRAP.

Cool temps all weekend, rain Saturday, a low of -2 deg C on Sunday night. It really hasn't been great around here at all.

That's all fine though, I just pulled the boat out of storage last Thursday, so I have a bunch of pre-season cleanup and prep to take care of before splashing her.

Long weekend coming up here in Canada this weekend and the weather network is forecasting rain on Saturday :(

The little one has birthday parties to attend Sunday and Monday afternoons so boating will be minimal for me. The temps are staying quite low around 50 F and the wind is going to be blowing anyways :x

You see that "option" in the pictures inside the boat catalogs at the show, but I could never find the line item on the order form..........

You florida guys have nice weather, but you also have humidity and I can do without that. Love the dry heat of the west coast. There now I feel better and I am not envious of the 92 degrees. It will be in the upper 80's this weekend though.
