Its a beautiful day here in the Baltimore area. 70 tomorrow, Friday and Saturday. Plan on wet sanding her bottom Saturday morning and painting Saturday afternoon. When I am positive old man winter is gone we will remove the shrink, wash, compund and wax her in apreparation for her bottm to be wet again. Yeah!!!

Hank, I will be on the boat this weekend as I have in the past few. But hoping to take her out of the slip and get her into the sunshine!

...sounds like you have a plan Hank. Where'd she spend her winter months? Don't mind me if I asked you that before....

Jamie, lucky you, my marina shuts down November thru April.

Wil,

She's on the hard at Bill's Boats, Millers Island, right around the corner from you.

Oh, amost forgot...they turned the water back on at the marina too. Need to get that funk off the boat asap! Perfect weekend to give her a good soaping.

Jamie
Where do you keep your vessel?

Lower Potomac River. About 38 miles up from the bay. Colonial Beach, VA.
I live in Montgomery County though in Germantown, MD.

Thanks to Mother Nature and the beautiful weekend she gave us the bottom has been sanded and painted. Only thing left is spit and polish then we can launch her in a couple of weeks. I was surprised at how many people did not take advantage of the weather this week end. Only 3 boat owners preppeing for launch at my marina.
