No long idle zone? now you've got my attention!:eekdrop:

Yes Sir! They pull all the buoys in the winter, asked the ranger last year and he said its fair game til the buoys go back in. Ready to go test that 36 yet?! Could get a good run with no traffic this time of year. After last night's rain, I'm sure the lake has plenty of water :)

I'm draining out the antifreeze today, rebuilding and reinstalling the pumps then we're ready.
Today looks like the best weather day.

Ill be out Monday come hell or high water. I have been dying to get out there :)

Good to see you guys taking advantage of this rare early spring. Too many people boat by the calender. The Michigan weather forecast for next week is upper 70s and even 80s! It's gonna be a long & great boating season. Who needs Florida; We've got the Great Lakes! :)

Fart!
Boats ready except wash job but noticed when changing gear oil my license plate is on my box trailer 30 minutes away in the wrong direction. Not chancing that one on St Pattys Day. I don't feel the Luck:) May even had been some residual drinks left in me on my way home tonight.
So... Sunday boating?
Artie, or anyone else from around here, I'll meet you at the Buckeye Ocean to break in the lake! I'll buy ya'll a drink at Woody's or the Island House.
Off to pickup my other trailer with the ficticious plate on it...

Damn! Didn't check this thread! We spent a great day at Buckeye ocean today. The water was up nice and high and it was gorgeous until the tornado sirens went off :rolleyes:

Got the boat back in the shop just as the rain hit. Next time give me a call. We are thinking of going out Wednesday afternoon...

2 guys I work with were down fishing on the Detroit river and seen a few offshores running around. Glad someone got out and enjoyed the weather!
