Damn...it's so far away.
This is my first year with the boat. So far the winter has felt loooooooonger than normal. Our lake will probably be frozen until June with these temps.

Like John, still frozen in the slip. Hope to be floating free by 3rd week of March, might be a bit cold to go out though.
