Nice 18° now and 4" of snow in the am

Dream_Inn

Supposed to get 3-6" of snow this Wednesday.  But, good news is that it looks to be warming up after that.  I'm gonna try to hold off until mid-March, just to keep the boat cleaner cause water doesn't turn on until April at the dock.  But I could be in the water in 2 weeks!!

But you have a blown impeller, so you are in the same boat as us northern boaters.

Go ahead take your ford out lol

Glad you're out enjoying the boat moving to the keys in July, wondering if the 270 would be a good keys boat... have a lead on a dock that would work... might be a lot of upkeep having an I/O year round in salt... no lift like HM. 

rasbury

I would think a great keys boat...I'd put it on a trailer if I could...

rasbury

What are you going to do in thet keys?

No no no. Get a CC with a cuddly and twin OBs

Guess it really depends on what you want to do with it. I can see Handy's point but surprised he didn't tell you to RV the keys!

Handymans342

RV to keys and rent a boat

rasbury

That would make sense on a vacation....

Really don't like those boats... I need lots of shade, cushions and a big downstairs with AC. I have this problem called being Irish and loving boating at the same time. Plus my new boss has a few boats I can use if it's just a short trip out.

Where do we sign up for such gig? Agree with the shade is your friend. 

rasbury

So what is the gig?

J3ff

Tech work/Property Management... throw in some captain'ing on the weekends and maybe underwater photography of groups. That's the plan. Hopefully 2 out of 4 work out.

thank you have been through Sanford on the autotrain more than a few times.... maybe one of the times in the future you could show me what a FL lake is! 

Lake_Bum

We got 40 inches of snow last weekend in Arizona. More coming this weekend, all the lakes should be loving it. I'm ready for spring fishing! 

rasbury

Be happy to @J3ff....if I get my boat floating...and it's not the lake but the river...about 200 miles!

J3ff

River? in FL? that sounds fun!!

rasbury

Look at the St John's river...runs from Melbourne to Jacksonville out to the Atlantic....lake Monroe is the big lake in sanford...it's a nice boating area..

J3ff

Wow pretty sweet, seems to go pretty far south too!!! Wonder how much of it is boatable.. 

rasbury

Well, define boatable. As far as I'm concerned, where I live is Sanford so as far as a 270 or bigger, this is about it for south. Bass boats/ poontoon can go much further south and then you get down to airboats.
