I might need a group HUG now & then to get me threw these hard times. :smt100. :smt043
 
Looks like I have the longest wait. Our Marina closes October 15th and we have 167 days until we can launch.
 
WP, How long do you leave your boat in ??. When do you pull it.
 
Until they tell me I have to take out.......I would love to keep in all year, but they wont allow it........I took out and just cruised the harbor and did some docking and undocking....Felt really, really good...Just very windy
 
Mine just came out yesterday. It was bittersweet. Bitter because it's out, but sweet because I had a nice day to powerwash the bottom and remove the drives for the winter. Now I just have to winterize it when I get the time. I'm shooting for a re-launch on or around April 1st, so my countdown clock is at 137.
 
Out here most of the boats are pulled & put to sleep by Oct 15th. :smt021

I usually shoot for right after Halloween. That gives me a decent length season and has me out before it gets too cold to work on the boat. I'm at the mercy of the crane operator who comes up my canal anyway. He usually waits until he has a bunch of boats to do on the canal before he makes the first trip up the canal with his barge. He came yesterday and pulled about 8 or 9 boats.
He'll make another trip up after Thanksgiving to get to the guys who like to stay in for the fishing.
Where is "out here"?

You guys need to stop counting days when you talk about a 150 160 days that sounds like will never get here You need to count Fridays There is only 19 more Fridays until April 1st Now does that not sound better
 
I hope to get out at least once more this month. Maybe once or twice in Dec. I'm hoping temps stay mild so I don't need to winterize.
