Now I think of that before I go outside and the cold feels ooooh sooo good.

Snow tomorrow though, so I expect things will warm up down in FL pretty quick.

I was ecstatic the day I took delivery. I was even MORE ecstatic the day I finally sold it.. Wondeful boat, but drains money faster than pet horses... Never, ever, again...

I was BUMMED the day I sold this boat, did not sell it cuz I wanted to, stuff had to go and this was 1st on the list. I had more fun on that boat, I was single for the 1st year I owned it. I think it had kind of a bad rep after that year, but it was worth it. It�s a magazine not a clip......

In the summer TONS of boats will raft up (tie up together) and party. I have seen a few hundred boats there at times, use to get pretty wild untill a few years ago when we had some drownings, I think there were 1 a year for 2 or 3 years. Dumb azz kids would dive in and push off the bottom, its only about 12 feet deep there, and hit there head on an outdrive on the way back up and get knocked out and drown. That is how I think it happens, but in every case there drunk and the local PD spends a bunch of time in there now. Plus its a pretty good clip from lake MI, all no wake, and if you have big power you need to keep blowing out your motors, at least mine, or they stumble like hell till you can get back to the big lake and run. Fun for little boats as they can run up to 55 MPH about 1/2 way there IF your under 26 feet. If not its an all day affair to get there. It�s a magazine not a clip......

Please do the same for me in September when the high here is in the 100's and 10' of water is predicted in the front yard!
