Lets inform them that the South isn't full yet and you can avoid winter if you chose to do so. I am so glad that I did-I have boated on Christmas day every year since we moved down LOVE IT!!!

I don't do much end season here as keep up maintenance while in use. No worry freezing or snow, just the rainy season here. Fog motor, etc, and big boat under the shelter, covered and seya ya spring. Flatty same and covered and "seya" spring. Rest I do spring waiting the long cool weather to get warm. Lose energy end of year, but it builds up waiting for .."here we go again"! But getting up in years and started "wet" with my dad and older brother at 3 years old..(have the pic with whole family 1953 with a boat my dad and bro built, with a 10 HP Elgin the back. Be 67 next June, so thats 64 years now? It never gets old, but I am! Get old is fine, grow up?

NEVER!

What fun would it all be if we didn't have seasonal change to keep us looking forward to the next chapter? BOring, same old warm weather, sun , tatas , all the year long . I don't know if I could handle that.:rolleyes:

Six months on an impeller ? Try shutting it off once in a while. LOL

Nooooooo winterizing yet !!! Gotta finish getting this dang motor running before I put her away !!! Gotta get one blast on the bay at least ! SO CLOSE !!!!
It hasn't hit sub-zero temps yet... I hope it stays that way for a few more weeks.
It's almost time to put the bike away though!
