Sure is quiet here. I can't be the only one getting my boat ready.
 
i will be starting on mine soon. I'm in the process of ordering all of my parts and supplies for the upcoming season.
 
I am ready to go, just zinced the boat today,splash next week
 
Need to work on docks at the boat club, then the boat.
 
I started yesterday, cleaned the interior and may take off the shrink wrap next week.
 
We were going to launch today. Got a call yesterday my mother is in the hospital. The marina will launch the boat for me tomorrow.
Crazing repairs all completed and new Gel coated the entire cockpit and stairs, new Elegance head from Raritan and PuraSan Hold-N-Treat installed, all new zincs, bottom painted, boats detailed and waxed. The marina started on the FLIR installation. Hopefully we will get to spend the weekend on her, depends how my mother is doing. I can't wait to start spending time on the boat again soon.

Our "springizing" is to remove the engine room heater.
That is done.
I just completed removing the cabin carpet and installing
some wood flooring my wife found at Sam's. I just need to
find a few pieces of matching trim and it is done.
I also need to fill up with gas then wax the topsides.
 
Boat is splashing tomorrow - I hope. This is my first full season with this new to me boat - Can't wait to start the season.
 
My cover is already off my boat. Next to look things over and wax the hull. (OK, I never got around to covering the boat this winter, maybe next).
 
Greg,
Where are you storing your boat these days? Are you still going to Aspinwall?
 
No, I've been storing it at Rayland Ohio. It's about mm # 80 on the right descending bank. I heard yesterday that Aspinwall was sold to Fox Chapel. Last time I stored in Pa, the state tried to hit me with a 6% use tax!
 
It sure looks like spring as we got maybe 1/3 of our docks in last weekend at boatclub. Hopefully they will all be in before Easter.
