Mine is sitting on the Hydro Hoist already Winterized! Would be nice to get out though, even though the lake is still a mess down here by Burnside!
Brrrrr!

Re: Going boating Wednesday 12/14/11!
OK Islander wins, I de-summerized my Waverunner last week after a ride across Lock5 on the Ky River, that's right the river was so high I was able to ride the Waverunner right over top of it. I would have taken a picture but to be honest about it I was a little skeered.......... I'll put it back in the water sometime in March.

Re: Going boating Wednesday 12/14/11!
Okay Islander. The weather looked crappy, your pictures sucked. Your boat is slow, dirty, and the water looked nasty. I'll bet you had a lousy time. No wonder nobody chats with you on here. Nobody cares. You have no life.

Re: Going boating Wednesday 12/14/11!
Hey, anyone and everyone is welcome to go with me anytime I go. I usually post a few days in advance... It really depends on the weather and whether or not I have clients needing my services. Although it will be a minor miracle if I get to go out again this year, but you never know... I de-summerized on Christmas Day in 2008 I believe and it was in the 70's! I could not get the wife to go boating with me as it was really windy. I did get a bonus of $1.49 / gallon gas to fill her up. I felt good running the first tank of the season out on cheap gas... Will not likely see that again.

Rooster
That is not a GPS speedo, but it is the most accurate boat speedo I have ever seen utilizing the Bravo drive pickup. My GPS reading at that speed is within one MPH. That is a rarity for a boat for sure... Most of these in this style are three to five MPH too fast at top speed. I am just lucky I guess...
