Hello All,

I've been lurking for a bit and wanted to jump in and say hello.

Been boating most of my years and owned a boat since I was 17... The family
and I love every minute of it...

I see thin skin needs to be checked at the door! ;)

Have a great weekend all,
JT

Nah, we've got one big fat vulgar blow hard and a couple of his
minions that follow him like puppies, but the rest here are cool.

Thank you, JT! I had a great round of golf today, and plan to do so again
soon. The boat is in the driveway, but may get out soon to watch one of the
local Christmas Boat Parades.

I envy you... My boat is winterized, the boat lift is on the beach and it
probably won't break freezing today. The lake has started to freeze over.
Late April/May she might see water.

Taker easy,
JT

the Potomac, yet.

We've had some here in South Florida, all of it in drinks as far as I
know. We know it's winter when the pool heater is still running in
mid-afternoon.

So what lake are you on JT ?

JT,

Donnie is dumb (really) and has an adult kid who treats him like a
servant. You'll figure the rest out on your own.

Funny you should mention that. I just shut mine off. The cool nights
have turned into a $660 electric bill. $200 higher than normal. It hit
the $700 mark when I had friends in town and bumped the heater up - at
least that was worth it. It's OFF until things warm up around here.

What's the sense of having a pool heater if you're too cheap to use it?

When you see a layer of fog hanging over your pool in the morning, you know
it's time to shut the heater off. Even a 150,000 BTU heater can't keep up
with losses due to evaporation.

Our pool has already frozen over.

You better get to working on that cold fusion generator.

I guess. When we put our pool in the standard heater for it's size was
85,000 BTU. We went for the optional 150,000 BTU unit. It was worth it,
but without a thermal blanket, it can't keep up when the night time temps
drop to the low 60's or 50's. It automatically shuts off at about 43
degrees ambient air temp to prevent freeze up.

Your area is too cold for this, but in the south, it is common to have a
electric retractable insulated cover over pool. It lowers the cost, and
allows you to swim on the warmer days. In Atlanta, we will have a week
or two of nights that drop to the 20's-30's, and then a week or two in
the 70's-80's. I can remember one Christmas morning it was in the high
80's. Since the jet stream wanders all over, our weather changes
drastically, and many people keep their pool heater on year round.

Yeah, I cover my pool up but some don't. Mine is covered around the
end of Oct. and I open it end of March. The main reason I winterize is
because of leaves.

Don't forget to send a packet to JohnnyH and Ditzy Dan. It might mellow

Diamond Lake 40 miles north of Spokane, WA.

Over the weekend we had temps into the mid 30's, only the small bays are
froze over. They are calling for teens this weekend.
