Close enough. We get to use our diesel furnaces aboard our boats at
least once in a while almost every month except (maybe) August. Summer
starts in Seattle the first work day after any 4th of July holiday
weekend.

Boating up here is a 12-month proposition. Maybe that's because if we
waited for the "perfect" summer day to go boating there are years we
wouldn't get out at all. This winter has been pretty busy, and I've
not been able to boat as much as I would like. I've only logged 60
engine hours since last November. How about you Harry? Been out in the
Parker lately?



Was not Seattle, but was close. Nice ride on the Victoria to Vancouver
ferry last June. Warm, sunny. Rained later in the day in Vancouver, BC,
but Victoria was warm and sunny. Would have liked to have my boat for a
Gulf Island tour. Thinking of a Summer trip with the boat this year. Harry
uses the "Lobsta Boat" in the winter.
