Time on the boat/IBoats...

As I sit here, watching IBoats for anything that I could relate to my boat, or engine, I am thinking about the time that I have spent on each....

I think that I have more time siting here on the internet, reading and chatting about boats, than I have actually out USING my boat!:facepalm:

Now first I think thats kinda sad. Because I should just take any chance that I get to put her in the water and go.... Now I enjoy reading about other people projects, and reading about mishaps and what to not do. I have learned SO much from this site and I am not complaining about that. The thing that I am complaining about is that I NEED to be in the water!!! I just wanna sit there and fish, and drink some beers..... I just cant get a nice day out here when I dont have to be at work. I am starting to run short on time before I have to put the boat away for a while, and I just wanna be out there.....

Four more times....is that too much to ask? Just be on the boat four more times.....

Move down here and you'll have plenty of opportunities left! Heard y'all already got some frost up there in MI.
I spend a lot of time here because my internet is $35/mo and paid up so I might as well use it checking out the rebuild threads and checking the new posts.
If I used the boat as much as I really wanted I'd be fired, my GF would leave me, and my dogs would starve!
Make a Saturday happen soon! Or if you work an odd schedule, a weekday morning is great! I went out Friday morning and was the only boat on our little lake here.

Yea I do work a weird schedule. It moves around every week, so I cant get anything set up with the wife. I always seem to be working on the days that have any amount of sunshine. I did take the boat out twice during the week. The friday that we went out, we got a late start, about 9ish on the water, and the only people on the lake were the people that lived there. The other time was a wednesday and a different lake. Nobody was there, it was great!!

Luckily, the frost was still about 2 hours north of me. I was sooo happy that it didnt get that cold at my house.... My luck something would have froze and broke Knock on wood......
