I'm ready to go boating!!!!!!!

At least i get to go to the boat show in Nashville this weekend!
 
I am thinking de-winterizing in two weeks and first boat trip the first weekend in March. Global Warming right?
 
My new boat comes in February and if marina is ready, I may put it in early!
 
I hate to say this but we went for a boat ride up Lake Chickamauga to a nice bar and grill for some great food. Then we went for a ride down to the lock and back. It is great to boat in Chattanooga and live in the south.
 
Very Jealous!!! i am counting the time to early March but that possibly being too optimistic.

I just finished installing a new helm and steering cable. Found rotted wood behind the bolsters so that needs to be taken care of, too, before putting the interior back together. Going to do some rewireing to reslove some intermittant gremlins. New carb and GPS/FF are on the shelf awaiting my attention. Finally, I'm calling in a pro to replace the bellows and trim stop wiring on the OD. I guess I'll be boating sometime this summer. Thankfully, the boat is stored indoors at the house.
 
Installed new carpet in the helm today and started waxing but it just got too hot. Had to quit early. 88 degrees today and expect same for next 10 days. Probably do some river cruising this week.
 
I haven't even winterized this year. Not been cold enough yet. Still staying some weekends on it. Good thing about being in water year around.
 
We're planning to head out for this coming weekend either Friday afternoon (if it doesn't rain here in MD) or Saturday morning, returning on Sunday. High temp is forecast to be near 60.
 
We are having a nice weather this week as well, it's going to be 55 degrees this weekend. Still too early to do any work though.
