    Default Winterized me boat finally...ha


    Had 20 hr checkup on engine last week and left cover at lake house. Got caught with me drawers down 'round the knees. Looks good though. (_X_)....

    Everything's looking good Tom. You can just keep that white stuff over there in Tenn. though....I'm wanting WARMER weather here. We're chomping at the bit to be on the lake and the temps you guys must be having doesnt sound like too much fun on the water.
    Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

    Dealers recommend maintenance checks based on hour usage. I got a hour meter on me boat and I just follow dealer recommendations based on the warranty.

    Cane Pole, you need to keep that motor tilted down during the winter. If water fills up the exhaust/prop, you take a good chance of busting the lower unit seals. Leaving them hang will not hurt them one bit. Speaking of snow it tried to do that here today, just never stuck to the ground.

    Sometimes I forget things. It trimmed down now. I wake up in a new world every day. Ha. By the way, I used the fan chains for hanging the jigs like you suggested. They work great! Will post a pic later. Them jigs swing forever once you hang them up...haha
