I'm not sure of the rules. It does seem like we don't. But I don't have one right now and I specifically told the dock master to pull me aside if he sees me with her again. I have to find a new one. |

Saturday spent all day cleaning mine up and replacing stickers on it and replacing gear oil in lower unit. Started it up in the driveway and I shut it off pretty quick.
Took to the ramp on Sunday with the family... Started up and it ran for about 2 minutes then died... Wouldn't start again and back out of the water it came. Stupid boats... At least the Skis run.  Attached File |

They've brought the lake up 4' in the last two weeks, 8' more to go. Seems like they're refilling fast this year because the snow pack wasn't real deep and the danger from flooding is fairly low.
Boat goes back in about the third week in May. I can't wait, even if the water is too cold for swimming (for rational humans) until about the start of July. Only downside I see is boat gas...won't surprise me if it's over $7 a gallon this summer. Wife in traditional north Idaho April svimvear!  Attached File Attached File |

Finally got my passenger seat re-upholstered, had a hole in the headrest and got a tear in the seat bottom somehow last year. Probably going to be an spendy spring for me though. I torched my knee in November and couldn't pull the batteries they are acting like they are charging so I hope they last the day.

One advantage of living on a lake with a dock and a lift is that boating season is any day I feel like going out.
 Did my annual deep cleaning about a month ago. |

Just was out in the barn waxing my little kencraft 239. We have been boating consistently for the past few weeks
I got a new work boat, an Axopar 37 should be here in a few weeks. Pretty excited about that one! |

Yesterday, with the wife.
 Mine is just a 16' Princecraft with tiller 25 & 10, but it's good for the fishing we do "rough" in Quebec. It does have floors and pedestal seats. Plus we saw the train that went into the Lehigh.

Finished the compounding, polishing and waxing this past weekend. Top to bottom, foredeck, non-skid and side decks. Finally have the hull shining how I want it to, and my shoulders are shot.
Bottom paint, drives, anodes, new transducer, and new upholstery done. Splashing this week!  Not too shabby for an 18 year old hull. Still gotta change out batteries though. |

Have about a month or so before the river ice breaks up.
Need to find a lower unit for the zuk and new steering gear for the flat boat. Tempted to get hydraulic steering for the flat boat as it is hard to steer. |

We're on a spring fed lake with a boat in the water. Water temp has to be at least 84-86 for my cracker ass to go in. May, June? We will see. |
