It's hard to beat boating in the Winter. for anyone wanting to twist my words, this is JMO
I love the FL summers. I have been here my whole life and the warm weather is nothing a cold beer can't fix.

Yes, I know, we were still there, this past Summer was our first in Florida and like I said it was no different than LOTO, if anything it was cooler here than '11 and '12 at LOTO , I guess it's the ocean breeze.

And I agree about the beer thing too.

But I'm sure they'll be this one clown who always twist my words, geez, I dislike mean people.

I'm looking forward to HOPEFULLY getting some serious snow here SOON in Mi, I like winter even better than summer, I actually ride snowmobiles more than I get out boating these days, the 2 seasons are about the same length. I have lived in California, Virginia and Ill, this is my favorite of the four, to me Fla is a nice place to visit but too crowded and warm for me, Smitty

Amen Brother,

nothing worse than to wake up in the morning with all your joints aching because it is cold. I used to go into the bathroom in the mornings up north, run the hot water over my hands until they stopped hurting during the winter months. It.is.hell.getting.old.

Im with you but only in Mn. Now if the weather could just go from 80+ degree boating days, then the next day of 15 degrees and 4 feet of snow it would be perfect. Spring and fall just get in the way for power sports

With you 100%........................but, I get where some guys love the snow, I like to play in it, so I would go vacation somewhere cold so we could snow ski, but the shoveling and driving in it is out for me, have fun in the snow, I appreciate where you're coming from.
