I think I'll stick to 45 degrees and drizzling. :-)
(Talk about boats that would be affected by climate change!)
That's your year-around water temp, right?
It's a bit warmer than that in Puget Sound, varying from about 48-52
degrees during the year. Some of the inland lakes can be warm enough
for comfortable swimming.

45 degrees is a typical air temperature in November. Just like Puget
Sound, the air warms up to about 52 in the summer. :-)

52F water temp? In the summer?
Hehehehe.

Jesus. I'd sooner go bowling. Bundled up boating isn't my cup of
tea. The women wear their bikinis under parkas.

Northwestern boaters must take their lives in their hands every time
they go out.......even in mid July. 1-3 hour expected survival time
in those sort of water temperatures.

No thanks.



I really don't get the point of boating in a cabin.

From the guy with a "sport cabin" on his boat. What next?

The cabin feature was one of the reason he purchased the boat, it
probably is the reason it never used it. If you want to buy a
previously owned, rarely used Parker, it is a great deal.
