Second crappy boating Season
Well guys here I sit on my keester on a saturday night telling you all that this is the second crappy boating season in a row up here on Lake Erie....... And whats even worse is the fact that it does not look any better for whats left of the rest of the season !!!!!
Last year was so bad that I should have built an Arc because the rain and wind was so bad..Now for this season its been so God Awful hot that you can't go out in the day time without getting cooked to death-----------------No bimini top on the boat.
I look down the canal and see nothing moving ,not even the fishing boats... been like that all summer.
Never mind the gas!!!!!!!!!

You just have to play the hand you're dealt. We have had a hot summer here as well (14 or 15 straight days over 100), but it didn't slow us down. We've had a great summer.

I have to say that I'm a little puzzled too. This has been the BEST boating season ever for me. I've documented all of my outings and there have been 29 including 3 times in March when we set new record highs in the 80s. That is the first time I've ever been on the Great Lakes in March. April got back to normal but after that it's been nothing but hot, hot, hot!! To me that means the only place I want to be is on the water keeping cool. Also the only thing I've broken is a battery hold-down. I'm looking forward to an overnighter at Put-in-Bay this Wed & Thur for the "Bartender Olympics". You do carry sunblock don't you?

I usually choose not to take the boat out when it is 100*. I have a nice pool at home so I just stay home.
Today is going to be nice here, mid 80's, low humidity. I have to get off the computer and get the boat ready!
