Actually the plan is not to haul at all this year. I've got this nice
little
retrograde bay (a bay within a bay if you will) that has about three
feet of
silt in it. As the lake levels drop the boat will sink into the silt and
a great
deal of the normally wetted surface will be high and dry. I'll string
about 50'
of deicing cable through the bilge and around the inside of the hull
near the
water line to prevent any frost damage.
