My God.... Just barely picked the boat up out of storage on Friday.... Dropped it off 10 minutes ago to get the once over, impeller change, trailer check, fluids check, start off the season check bla..bla..bla....

Yea...May 25th...WTF... Confused

To top it off, I really do not feel so bad. The weather has been off, that is not to say that people are not getting out, they are....including some of my friends at Powell as I type.... But it is time to make up for this 30+ days of missed water time....

Mine isn't even in yet. Having both lower units replaced. Luckily the insurance is paying for it. Replaced starboard engine last year. What a fregan money drain. Hope to have it in by next weekend though.

I feel your pain- I got 3 days of riding in florida in febuary, got back to illinois and did not get to ride again until this past sunday.

We had quite a few days where it was warm enough to ride, but our river has been flooded... just opened up last week.

Man, I missed riding!

I have not had mine out at all. It is ready for the water, just need to gather up the people. I have already accepted the fact that my boat will only see the water between 5 and 10 times this year : ( Kids suck, I mean are a bundle of joy Mr. Green

Well good to know I'm not the only slacker on here, we put our stuff in last week on Wednesday though I've been skiing behind other boats since Good Friday.
