The National Weather Service has issued a significant storm warning for our
area starting early Sat AM and extending into Sunday. Sustained winds of 35
mph with gusts of up to 60 mph.

So, here I am back on the boat to ride it out. Should be fun.

It's safe enough. I am in the back basin here and it's somewhat protected.
If we get the winds they are predicting, I'd rather be down here to check
the lines on the boats rather than being home worrying about them.

Besides, it's fun.

I am glad I put the boat to sleep last weekend, including putting the winter
cover on. We are seeing heavy rains and winds tomorrow are expected to come
close to 50 mph.

Our friends with the Lyman had hoped to put the tarp on their boat
tomorrow.................key word 'hoped'....;-)

Oops! Did you give it up by choice, or were you medically forced??!!

But, there isn't much better than a nice hot cup of coffee when it's
cold and you're lounging. Do you spend the bad weather on your boat for
safety purposes or just because you like to?

Went out boating today. Sunburn weather. Hate them water weeds. Had an
overheat today. The mossy stuff plugged up the input end of the heat
exchanger. Franks track is a flooded island and is about 8' deep. With
weeds about 2' below the surface. No Black Bass, lots of little stripers.
Decision for tomorrow. SF Bay and halibut and stripers or mokelumne river
and stripers and salmon and LM bass? Supposed to cooler tomorrow. High
30's at night, 70's daytime.

Just time to clean up my act. Started working out in the gym, losing some
pounds, lifting some weights, just generally trying to get back to a
reasonable facsimilie of my former self. I love the taste of a good beer,
but the beer no longer loves me. It comes with age.

As to your question of the boat and weather .... both. They are both still
in the water and as a practice I try to check on them before a good blow. I
also enjoy staying on the Navigator when the weather is bad and the winds
are blowing. It's a nice escape.

So, when do you guys in the SF Bay area consider the boating season to be
"over"?
Or do you?
