Woody I didn't really want to post these and I feel bad that I had to go into the water so soon.;) I'm just doing what Blueone asked....:D;):D;)... Hopefully you will be soon
 
Going in on May 4th (at Algonac Harbor Club) and will bring it around to our home port (Bouvier Bridge Marina).
I am on a business trip in Budapest right now, returning Friday. Will head down on Saturday and hook up the batteries to start a trickle charge. Can't wait. All rubbed out, new bottom paint and we are supposed to have some canvas repairs and a new set of just screens for the cockpit.
 
Pics???.... No one splashed ?

I go in Tuesday... Forecast says 74 and clear..... Leave work around 10:00 .. It doesn't get better than that.
 
Splashed yesterday... Now if the fog burns off I can move it to my marina... Having all new canvas made and of course the guy is running late.. So gonna be a cold ride, But idc She's wet!!!!

Fortuately, no problems at all. Took extra precautions like flushing the thru hulls and sea cocks till water ran clean. Also, I "benefit" from a long-ish no wake zone, so it allowed everything to come out of hibernation and warm up nicely.

We spent Saturday night on the boat and when I got up Sunday morning the small water puddles that were on the swim platform were solid ice. I grabbed a towel to dry off the swim platform and needed an ice scrapper instead :eek:.
 
Congrats Blueone, you had perfect weather for sure. Glad you had no issues. What marina did you end up going with? I remember you saying you were looking for a new one closer to the D.
