Wayne, First welcome aboard! Second, don't mind the boys. Every year about mid February they start getting stir crazy. The anticipation of getting back on the water in what is now a matter of weeks rather than months is almost more than they can bear. You will find they will get stranger & stranger as we approach late March, then suddenly it will grow quiet and that is how you will know they are floating. Their posts after that will be more normal......well, "normal" is open to interpretation, but you will see what I mean!!
