Went to Bowline on Saturday, jumped in the water to cool off - and it is WARM! Even down 6 - 8' it was still warm.

Somewhere in the 80's? Given all the heat up there I would believe it.

Pool was just right in Montauk :)
today I'll head to Block I saw some guy in a bowrider waiting near the harbor I think Bob may be waiting to follow. The sound was so flat yesterday I would have made the trip in a bowrider myself. I hope it's as nice today!

The ocean off Monmouth Beach is warm as well. Nice.

Maybe the warm water is why I and some of my dockmates have barnacles on fresh bottom paint.
I scraped some off at Croton Point but I'll have to put it on the trailer to get the rest.

First time since I owned this boat that I have barnacles on the bottom and painted it for the first time this spring. I just noticed them at Block. The waters so clear they were easy to see. I even had them on my dinghy.

Does it hurt when you pee?
The weather today was crappy the fog was pee soup the whole way from Block to Essex but the trip has been great sad that it is nearing it's end!

I scraped my boat last weekend, the barnicles on the metal surfaces had barnicles on them. I have never seen it so bad.
Dave, that's why we go in early July - much less chance of fog.

No but it hurt like hell scraping them off.

I had mine pulled and that done on Tuesday Mike. The water in my slip has been anywhere from 90 to 95 degrees but then again we are running the AC units full time and the transponder has to be picking up some hull temperatures. I know my house battery bank has been 100 degrees to 110 degrees with no charge or discharge on the batteries. No I'm not having any discharge problems with my AGM's.
Dave how is your charger working for you?
This morning we had some real nasty weather but it is sunny right now but still hot and humid.
The weather NEXRAD looks good for except for pop up thunderstorms which happen when the weather has been like it has this summer.

Glad to hear it's working better for you Dave, I still think you need another 8D in parallel like we talked about on the phone and in the charger thread. A pair of 8D's with proper DC load management should power your boat for overnight moorings. Also since you still have wet cell batteries keep an eye on the battery electrolite. I would think if your existing batteries are still in good shape you haven't had to put much fluid in them if the charging system is up to speed with the temperature probe installed.
