Is the winter cover off yet?
 
I will be taking the boat to the marina on Friday to start my Spring
projects previously detailed (gotta get some honeydo chores tomorrow).
Depending on the weather I should be done with exterior work by sometime
next week. In between gelcoat repairs, epoxy barrier coats and bottom
painting I will also be working on the engine and interior, thus cutting
down the total down time to get the boat projects completed.

If I can get it all done and get the boat splashed by May 8th I will be
happy.

So how about you?

Still working under the tarps. Installed a new sound sys this week: 2
6x9 3 ways, 2 6.5" round 3 ways, AM/FM cassette/CD deck, 10 disc CD
changer. Next week, re-commission/run-up, pressure wash the tree junk
off the driveway so I can get it back in on return, and
then...THEN...wash the thing (UGhhh) load it up with boat food, wait for
some sun and something over 60° and head for the San Juans.

Jim,
I'm sitting here with my wonderful daughter and I showed her your link for
the Southern boaters.
Nothing like the spontaneous laughter of a 12 year old!

Had the pontoon boat out a couple of time since we got it a month ago.
Really like it, and will be on it tomarrow. Might drop the runabout off
the lift as well after giving the battery a charge.

But swearing under my breath about the maintance the old boat house
"termite damage" and the underpinning of the old doublewide at the lake
place.

Pretty soon the tools will be left in the box until next year :-)

I guess being in Georgia makes me one of those Southern boaters :-)
Boating season had begun a while ago.

Finally I can answer yes to this question. Easter Sunday the cover came
off.
