I started putting mine to sleep earlier today.

It's weird but I really don't mind this year....there's just so much going on and I could use a break.

Due to business travel at the middle off Sept thru Oct I had mine pulled and winterized by the 2nd week of Sept :(

Now it will be a long 8 mths before I get to enjoy her again...

We'll be doing a tidy-up and fixing some things to get ready to play the rest of the winter.

I'll wait until dead middle winter and then send you guys some videos.

I said "no to winter" 8 years ago. They can have that white stuff!!!!

Man, you look pissed in the second picture! I hate putting mine down too. I'm still holding out for one more fall color tour.

Hear that Frank. With all the absolutely horrible accidents, the worst fuel prices ever in my life time, boat issues this year, my whole season - actually on the water - was all of 12mins. ... before I was pulling my motor again, to fix transmission. :( So I too, strangely, didn't mind winterizing last week. I still have to wax her and throw the mooring cover on, but I'm ready to put her away.

But still HATE winter!! :D :D :angry-smiley-038:

Great to hear from you Bill, Hopefully we will be able to make it up to Vette Fest this year. My dad is doing great, thanks for asking. Dave

It looks like we all are in the same boat. With any luck I'll take my to Florida and get some time in. Other then that "winter sucks"
