Title: When does the "Boating Season" Begin?
Post by Frog on Jan 27^th, 2010 at 8:49pm

I'm not a boat owner, but I was wondering... When do you guys get the ol' boat out of storage and hit the water? I guess we have a few more months of "colder weather" but some of these weekends lately have been amazing!

In my book, around here, March - November.

If I lived on the lake, it'd be year round. But dammit, I don't :P

I'll probably burn off some gas later this month. I think we're already pretty well away from any hard freezes.

That's what I'm planning. I think early March should be plenty warm enough to at least get out and drive around a bit.

I'm shooting for March - April.

If Jonestown would open up ramp #1 with the dock to tie up on, I'd go out sometime this week. Apparently AT&T has some cable floating in the water and they don't want to endanger anyone. I'd think AT&T would be all over fixing that?
