Dockage at kellys and the bay
 

We keep our boat at skipper buds in east harbor, I guess the water is like 3 ft lower now than in september. I heard the sw corner of east harbor is just a little creek. What do you guys think dockage at the Casino, port side and over at the bay is going to be like? In January skipper buds told us they were dredging the marina to ten feet but as of last week were still waiting on two permits also a Chanel is being dredged through East Harbor they said.

I don't think the water is 3 foot lower then it was in Sept. The only time I think it might be a problem is with a strong west wind.

i dock at cedar point and in october we still had 6 to 7 ft of water i think out in the open lake like the bay and kelleys we will be ok. im just going to say in the markers more then i have in the past. no more short cutting with the low water.

Sound like more trips to Cumberland this year than Erie. Cumberland lake levels are returning to 705' for spring.

ASide from a few spots it will be fine, just know the waters and low spots....

I am in West Harbor so I dont worry... but there is low spots at thr Casino, a rock in center...but it's normally fine

we will be good i just know it

Yea I know so too and hope so too....lol Don't want to go to that flat water over sized pond where the people go that don't like waves.rotflmao Steve just messing with you. Don't get me wrong it is fun there but only so fun plus it is so smooth, makes my slow boat feel even slower lol. Can't wait on the early bird.

Early bird soon!!!!

How is your interior coming?

might not be makeing it to the early bird :pray:

Not sure, gotta call this week and see... been busy myself...

for that kind of money you better... and have lunch paid for too...

me to but im not helping. i keep adding more to the list, now the other motor is not just getting springs its getting the heads pulled milled and new head gaskets and maybe a full upper r&r if needed.

:picard1::eek::picard1:

Why milled?

to make share they r straight and true i ges and to clean them up. i believe thats what they where saying. i could be wrong. they r also going to do a vac test on the valves to make shire they r seeding good

I see... cleanup mill then most likely, not much... just wondered...

the leak down on that motor was 5 to 15 % all around so i am hoping i can get away with just doing springs and gaskets and not a total top end r&r its getting to be a bit much. but the head gaskets where bad on the other one so i am assuming they r on both

head gaskets dont really just "go bad" ....

when i was talking to people about hours when to do top ends they said 300 to 350 on springs and that the head gaskets where known to be bad to

eather way so much to do when i get it back and such little time.

Seen your boat down at XT when i dropped off some parts to be done.

That good or bad? Lol

LOL good. Never seen your boat looks good. Nice to meet you Tim the guys down there speak of you in high regard. Maybe see you out on the lake this year.

Thx for compliment! Yea those guys are ok... Lol come in out to Kelley's any weekend I'm there....

Will do for sure as soon as the boat is back together this spring. See you out there.

it seems like today might be the turn we have been looking for. its geting nice out.:drink:

Only a month and 4 days, I am ready cant wait

How sweet would it be if the early bird weather was like today.

It's happened a few times.....

That would be sweet. Relly going to try to make it this year.
