Anybody care to comment on when their boating season ends or gets
curtailed?
The Florida guys are year-round except maybe for Ohara, who doesn't
seem to care for the summer heat. But maybe others shy away from
boating in that heat too.
I'm not sure about Georgia or the Carolinas.
All this may be useful to me in deciding where to move to, if that
ever happens.
Even though I won't move there, might be interesting to hear from the
West Coast guys too.
Ever notice how the West Coast is almost like a different country?
Time difference I think. They are the manliest of boaters, what with
those big seas, but you don't hear much from them.

Not here, it's the beginning of the fall fishing season, the best in
my opinion!

We're suppose to have year-around boating here in California but the
environmentalist keep stealing all the water from our lake. Our lake
has a capacity of 1,010,00 acre-feet with a surface area of 11,450
acres but is now a mud puddle. My season ended before the 100F days.

Even though the days are going to be getting shorter, there's still
plenty of time to do some decent boating in my area. Even well past
the time change (CST)

Just finding the time to go is the problem. I've only been out once
this year, and that was by myself.

But it'll happen.

I'm usually out on the waverunner at least a couple days a month thru
October and into November. Dry suit with a couple layers of warm
clothes underneath makes it delightful to get out and enjoy those
occassional mild sunny days you can continue to get on some weekends
(I'm in Long Island). Even an occassional early December ride has
occurred over the years. After that I"m pretty much shut down 'til
April (when the dry suit usually comes out again for the first couple
rides)....except on the years when somehow I can manage to trailer the
'ski down to visit my mom in SW Florida for a few days.

I do go boating year round but I slack off in the summer because
normally there's no wind. As far as I am concerned, boating has just
begun for the year. My sailing season goes from late Sept till mid-
June but the powerboating year round.
I have heard that S. FL (east coast) has wind in the summer.

The real question is whether or not you will be getting a flue shot
this year............so will you?

My flue works just fine, I had it checked by a chimney sweep last year.

The fall striper season will go into November. Now, that's not to say that
I'm brave enough to get out on the bay then!



Have you been out in the Bay yet with your new little boat? Haven't seen
you at BP, Solomons, or Deale launch ramps.

In fact...do you even have 20 hours on that boat yet?
