Who's parked their boat[s] et?
 
It's suppose to possibly snow here in ILLINOIS thursday. at least drom
to a low of the 30's and a high of 44. I ahven't winterized my boat
yeat. it's sitting in my waredhouse. with a concrete floor that will
stay warm for a couple of days. This week end it's supposed to be back
in the upper 60's and maybe later in the mid 70's again. Last eyar I
took the boat out for a couple laps around thelake even after the time
change, because a few days were almost in the 80's.

My youngest brother has mothballed his boat for the winter. I know JimH
has said he has.

Anybody else?

and in the midwest, what is the latest anybody goes out on the
river/lake etc. on the average?

Sitting in front of the house. Redoing the wheel bearings. Time for a
salmon trip up to the Sacramento river and crab season opens Nov. 11.
Only thing bad here is the A's lost the first game.

Deservedly so I might add.

Gotta wonder about Zito - the guy is inconsistent as hell.


That was my opinion on the guy, too!

What did you sell and what are you looking to buy?

I got word from my new marina (they have a positive Karma for those who pay
attention to those things) that my boat's mechanicals have been put to sleep
for the winter.

All that is left is for me to bring it home, charge the batteries, clean it,
cover it and then bring it to my friends yard for winter storage.

This was a season I would like to forget and I look forward to the 2007
boating and fishing season.............I will certainly be doing some
walleye fishing next spring.

BTW: The boss vetoed selling this boat and looking at a fishing boat.
Dammmmit!

Sold my Mako 254 and am really missing it now :(
I just got tired of all the maintenance it required to
keep it going.

I'd like to find something a little smaller to get into
the shallows but could take her out on
a calm day. Something like a Carolina Skiff
with a fairly new 4-stroke. I've never been
on one before and understand the ride *may not*
be as comfortable as it was on the Mako.
I rather like the T-top on the Mako and would
insist that whatever I get have one as well.
