I hope those of you in warm climates are enjoying your boats. I brushed 10" of snow off the boat yesterday. Freezing rain expected today.

Jeepers... we haven't had snow yet, just ice locking in the boat.

Don't all you guys have a sailing coach?

That's Vee Jay's crew MD trimming spin. Doctor H is scheduled to be at NA in Marblehead. I am working on crew.
Vee Jay 2 looking for five more doctors.

Dave ... what's the chance I can rent that Hooters spin for Jan?

We were scouting Olsen's Marina in Ft. Myers Beach on one of my crew's freedom boat club boats today for bottom work when we were distracted.

These gals recognized a fun bunch of senior citizens a mile away. I think I recognized the one on the left from the Hooters at Ft M Beach... but I need to get closer.

They have really good balance, but we were in a Manatee Zone so the boats weren't really moving too fast.

Dave - that could be a difficult question to answer. I'm seeing double.

It's bright, sunny and windy but 5 degrees F when I got up this morning. Can't wait for spring to warm up and get the boat ready to launch!
