Spring is Here!!!
De-Winterized the boat this weekend, went out on the river for a few hours. Everything worked great. Hoping for not much flooding this year.

Re: Spring is Here!!!
i de-winterized my a/c system today. engines/genset sometime next week. hopefully. the water temp was 47f and the bilge was 52 thanks to my engine room heater. brad is terrified that i'm jumping the gun on this one, but, as long as the water temp is in the 40's, we should be okay. canvas goes up in the next few weeks, i hope. it was at the canvas guys place over the winter to store and have some zipper repairs done. i'm just looking forward to warmer weather.......... as i assume all of us are.
Re: Spring is Here!!!
Started getting ready but I have a transmission leak. Leaked out over the winter. Hope it is a cooling hose or something minor. River looks great. Hope to see you soon at the boat house.Flyboy wrote:De-Winterized the boat this weekend, went out on the river for a few hours. Everything worked great. Hoping for not much flooding this year.

Re: Spring is Here!!!
Sounds good, I'm sure it will be quite a while before we get back, but you never know. That is such a great area on the river!

Re: Spring is Here!!!
spring got here in North Texas on the 20th 80 degrees today.
But along with warm weather comes mowing so not boat today. My sympathies for those still with snow and cold weather.

Here in northern WI, the lake opened up today. Dock and lift, and boats are going in tomorrow, and hoping to splash the F32 in April! Ice went out 4 weeks earlier that last year.
