Just spent over two hours today breaking up the ice around my dock, that sucked.
They are letting the water out and the ice is moving with it.

Two weeks ago no ice, today almost 2 inches in some spots.
A deicer is on my list for next year.

Sweet Jim sure makes for a nice photo.. I'll see ya in the summer if thats OK!!

thats cool you guys can leave the boats in the water year around!

thumper38- doesn't that cat have a cover???? She screaming cold!!!!!

Had a 30 Spectre w/egg beaters on my back-in lift for awhile. All they had to do was move the bunks.

dave at summerset said since the bunks are so hight to hit the tunnel that the lift cant go deep enought to clear the drives if your drives would end up over the bunks, granted i am dealing with a 40*16 slip in a little bit of rough water at times

No doubt it's a tight fit. I have always shut the boat off as soon as the rear is started into the slip and walk the boat in the rest of the way. My slip is only 12' wide so keeping the Spectre centered while backing it in was easy. Doing it with a 16' wide slip may be a little tricky depending on the width of the cat.
