Re: weather?????

snowing? bummer.

i'm bummed at the weather man too. he's been saying all week this weekend is gonna be highs in the mid 70's and lows in the high 40's. sunshine too. made me some plans for an overnighter for this weekend too.
now it's gonna be high 60's w/wind and low over night of 40. :( might get up to 69 with maybe some rain tomorrow. :(
still think i'm gonna do my overnighter. find out how tough i am. i've not gone down to 40 over night before. with winds.

hope the temps don't take the fun out of it..

if i do it.... ?

as for the snow at 38*. i've seen it here in NE. too. weird too. snowing and it's not freezing out... that's pretty amazing..

Re: weather?????

Keep your snow up there! ;)

I just wish all the wind would stop...... 3rd day in a row where it has been over 30 mph.......

We know that even if we get a foot of the white stuff it will vanish in 2 days...... remember the storm we had a few years back on April 27th!

Yep, weather is pretty uncertain right now. Just got home from a business trip in Alabama. Weather was great when I left and cold when I got home. Just don't know when to pull that winter cover off the boat right now ???

Yes I do. Had the cruiser docked two weeks prior. That was the second weekend stay over on it. Woke up to notice it was a bit dim in the cabin. Opened the cabin door and stepped out on the back deck and it was snow covered. The docks, boats, and everthing had several inches of snow. However the local Bass Tournement went on anyway that weekend. By about 2pm, the snow was gone.

thanks cj. and your right. anything is better than sitting at home. been doing that all winter and i'm plenty tired of that.. hope ya have some good fun at the ponds...

so ss. was that pretty cold inside your boat? do ya got heat on your boat? i don't. though i don't think it's gonna snow on me. (in NE ya can never tell though, snowed last week in western NE) but 40* is getting down there. gonna take some extra cloths to bundle up with. hopefully get by with that till the temps rise later in the day..

I use a small 110v electric heater. Keeps it plenty warm, I use a lower setting as it will get too hot sometimes. When I redone the interior, I used the 2" poly insultation on areas where I could plus I made insulating panels to go over my windshield. Helps keep things warm when its cold out and helps the A/C when it is hot out. I have a programmable stat in the cabin so it is always comfortable when we show up to spend our weekend. When it is hot out, the cabin temp can soar a bit over 100*. My wife likes it comfortable as she won't stay onboard if its not.......SS
