Default Finally...an eTec running!

Was just down at the marina, and voila! The local watercop was there,
ready to go out for a morning boatride in the fog. So I parked and
waited. Engine started on the second turn of the key. Seemed a bit
noisier idling out of the marina than a same-sized Yamaha.

So, I'm convinced: when I see an eTec on the transom, I will no longer
assume it is just the latest variation of an Igloo cooler.


Was the bay foggy this AM? It's foggy here now.

What's the charge for launching at Breezy these days?



Foggy? Foggy? I had to put my old curb feelers on the front of my car
just to find the road! We often have a lot of early morning fog this
time of year and in the early spring. Couple of guys heading out to fish
in a ChrisCraft cruiser said they would be dropping popcorn in the water
so they could find their way back. If you were at the gas dock there,
which is where I was for a few minutes, you could not see the bank on
the other side of the creek.

It's $10 for a non-storage launch. If you are a seasonal or monthly
storage customer, there's no extra charge.

Seasonal storage is $500, but Mike sez it is going to $600 next year.
That's not bad.
