Interesting , the forecast for here has changed three times in the last 24hrs...at one point we were getting sun, then 10-15cm of snow, now less than 1cm......hmmmmmm... :popcorn:
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

I want to launch but it's just to darn cold. I was ready to launch this time last year. Spring may have sprung but someone forgot to tell Mother Nature.

Well, this is different. My boat was splashed earlier in he week. Out of town, but coming back tomorrow.

Seems I may not be able to move my boat from the marina to my slip this weekend, which is only a few hundred yards away.

Seems an elderly gent went to the marina to set some dock fenders, then go get his boat and dock it.

Seems he has disappeared. His car is there. They think he fell in and drowned. They are dragging the river looking for him and would rather I don't leave the marina so that I don't find him with my props.
Thanks

Don't feel bad. It was in the mid 70's here today. Next week we will be back in the 30's for highs. Once we get solid 50's for a week I will launch.
