That's always tough. Some of the recently announced studies regarding dogs and how they think are very interesting. They think more like us than we ever knew. |

Sorry bob about your beloved... they are amazing when they are with us even if the time is short. |

Had my Mercury 60 Big Foot winterized last week.
Now I just have to remove the battery, maneuver the boat into it's winter spot, jack and block the frame so the wheels spin freely and then erect the Navigloo cover for a long 7 month sleep. |

Why not winterize the house and trailer the boat south? Lots of your neighbors are here. |

Hopefully they'll be done with it before the first hard freeze. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

Park your trailer where the freeze threat is minimal and continue to enjoy it all winter long. |

Here I can leave it in the drive as long as I want. I could even park it in the street, but the neighbors could get up a petition, and with enough signatures I'd have to move it (into the driveway, if I wanted).
