Anyone still boating?

Nice pics there yellow ! How cool was it for you ?

I took a prospective buyer/buyer out for a ride on Sat. It was 37*F(2.7*C) and windy ! We were probably out for an hour and a half. Did multiple 85-86 mph runs. Eyes were watering and freezing to your face ! Great Times !!

You know I did not even look to see what temp it was yesterday. I would say upper 50*. I know when we set out, there was frost on the windshield and 42* out. It did warm up quickly tho. I did have some long johns and jeans, as well as a t-shirt, my "thermo" back brace, and a fleece APBA jacket on. The wind cut right through and watered the eyes within seconds! By 1:00 I had the hat off and was not cold Now its time to figure out how to winterize the enchanter since its a junkyard motor with no drainplugs(might try and just pull it out)

Next cincy boat outing....1/1/10 with the playmate.....got to love winterizing outboards!

That is more for our lawn mowers down here. I may have cut mine once or twice more this year. That just leaves more boating time. I may take the pontoon out today. We got a bigger prop for it, a 14x11.

The enchanter is not the one in the garage.

That is what I was thinking when I was loading mine up at the ramp. I was sweating when I got in the truck, it was almost 8pm. Life is tough down here.
