    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!!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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! B)

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

  • rasburyrasbury Member Posts: 8,967 ✭✭✭✭✭
    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.
