I think most people (especially with kids in school) don't even pull the cover off the boat until Memorial Day Weekend.

I always plan to be in the water earlier than that but it just never seems to happen!!!

Jeez, I'm in NLT Apr. 15th and I'm 150+ miles north of VA. Beach.

Yeah - I wasn't saying it from the weather standpoint but more from the fact that I think there are other things in people's lives that keep them from focusing on boating until later than they should!!

Same here, I'm ready to be out on the water. Maybe we can a group of us to run out there when the weather warms up

Are you talking about the Tiki bar on the lower eastern shore? Where exactly is it? I've seen pics but never been there. I'm thinking it's not too far from Pt. Lookout.
