UHHHH....where the hell is SUMMER?????
 
Not to be a downer.....but man has this weather in the CT area SUCKED or WHAT!!!! Where the heck is the blue sky and warm weather????? It feels like we live in Seattle, instead on CT!

The crappy thing is that even during the week you can't take a "evening" cruise to catch a good sunset and grab a bite somewhere. It seems like it's been cool, cloudy and raining for the whole month of June!!! Ok, I'll stop my bitc&n, but we only have so many weeks of "good weather" in our area anyway, and these damn toys ain't cheap!!! lol Hopefully soon...:drink:

Gladhe8er 06-13-2009 08:12 PM

Dropped my boat in and it wouldnt start. I guess it was an omen as it started raining right after I got it on the trailer.

Black Wishbone 06-13-2009 11:39 PM

Hey pete anything going on down here today(sunday)? I am thinking about going out in the afternoon/

kreed 06-14-2009 07:32 AM

It's 10:30 The sun is out here in Haddam, the weathermen are f&#cking idiots

noyzee 06-14-2009 11:55 AM

yesterday here was a great day, sunny, warm, no rain, just great. i had 2 parties to attend, so i didnt even get to see my boat. today looks like 70% chance of rain, and its already showered about 3-5 times. looks like no boat for me again.
all next week besides tuesday look like crap. thursday i leave for bike week with no closed trailer so my bike that i spent 20 hours+ cleaning should look real good one i get there. even if i throw it in my truck, all my chrome will need to be repolished. not only that, but even on land i need a long sleve shirt!! this sucks

I concur with the weatherman thing....and what's wrong with this picture? oh yeah, its on a trailer, not in the water.....

prosno 06-14-2009 04:06 PM

Had a full boat and a day at Claudios planned but it was a crappy day so I went mowing instead and caught up on a few accounts, theres always next weekend

as of now, next weekend looks like a wash out. and being bike week and im going, it will rain. im sure.

bmanafort 06-14-2009 05:15 PM

Today overall was an OK boat day. Headed across to Claudios and spent the afternoon hanging out there. Could have been warmer but still ok.

JayFan 06-14-2009 05:52 PM

We were going to head out, but opted to cruise in the Vette instead.... it has heat!!!! hahaa:grinser010:

i was going to take my vett for a ride. i cleaned her up, shined the tires, turned the nitrous bottle on (just in case) ran in the house to lock up. while walking out of the house. it started to mist, then rain. it was a nice cruz 10 feet out of the garage, then 10 feet back in:angry-smiley-038:

bmanafort 06-14-2009 07:13 PM

Claudios had a photographer taking pictures today for their website. They took a couple pictures of my buddy and my boat tied together.

ur2slow 06-14-2009 08:15 PM

you just want to be on there website sad. Was a decent day of boating, beats stayin home! Smooth in the sound.

30ctsutphen 06-14-2009 08:43 PM

Wish I had made it out spent the day hanging 1/4 panels on my 69 firebird convertible so someday I can cruise with heat.LOL

Everyone has to have three 69 firebirds and a sutphen dont they?LOL



It was crappy here in simsbury most of the day anyway.

Tazz 06-14-2009 08:52 PM

My boat is on the trailer also. The motivational levels are at an all time low.

JayFan 06-15-2009 07:16 AM

You guys make me feel "A LITTLE" better......at least I know I'm not the only one!!!! :angry-smiley-038:

rich allen 06-15-2009 08:26 AM

Still on the trailer in the garage waiting for some wax. Even took a vac. day today to catch up on stuff like this.
Need some motivation.. Toughest time of year for me, with all that is going on, kids sports, etc... Gotta get focused!

Hey Steve, just saw this. I didnt know of anything going on yesterday. Boat is at my mechanics and yesterday was my fiance's bridal shower so I was on present pick-up duty!

JBOUTLAW 06-15-2009 09:57 AM

So I guess it wasn't a bad weekend for me to be gone and not be able to boat. Hopefully there's some good weather this weekend!!

Black Wishbone 06-15-2009 12:01 PM

Pete no biggy like everyone else I only got about an hour if that in anyways.

Boat is down right now. I will be at NYC on my brothers Fountain this weekend though. W/end after that I have a wedding. Maybe I will get to boat by 4th of July!

If your boat has to be down I guess now is the time for it with all this F@^#ing rain. Hopefully the weather guy's will be wrong and I'll see you at the run on Saturday ...Hopefully you'll be back on the water soon.

We're coming over on Friday no matter what. If we cant run the boats, we will have to find something else to do I guess:food-smiley-009:

My boat has a new starter & new trim switch...just waiting on a TPS sensor, then hopefully we are good for the rest of the summer.

JayFan 06-18-2009 08:35 PM

Looks like this weekend is a crappy washout as well.....not going to rain all weekend, but far from boating weather!!! Looks like mid next week it warms up into the 80's ...... about F'n time..... :eek:

kreed 06-19-2009 06:57 AM

Watched weather report this morning.........not a total wash out ! The weather is far from perfect, but I will find a way to get out and make the best of it. Probably Sunday.

JBOUTLAW 06-19-2009 06:04 PM

Anyone gonna challenge the weatherman and boat tomorrow?

Myself & Mahopac marine guy's are all loaded up for tommorrows NYC run we will be leaving peekskill around 8am. My goggles are all ready with a fresh coat of Rain X .The only way I'm not heading down is if hailing , sleeting or snowing... and maybe if it raining really really hard.

d24sf49 06-19-2009 08:20 PM
