Michigan Summer in Jan/ March Launch...or not!

[spartonboat1]

Gee, the winter weather has been so great in Michigan...60 degrees on weekends, etc., global warming and all don't you know, that the CPO and I were talkin' maybe an early April launch, instead of just before Memorial Day as usual. You know the Michigan boating season- Memorial Day to Labor Day!

Well, it hits zero degrees in the Soo (Sault Ste. Marie) the other night and now heavy snow warnings along the Lake Michigan shoreline, something called "lake effect" snow and church was cancelled this morning due to icing everywhere- on my driveway no less.

This global warming has got to steady up...its getting as reliable as a NOAA weather forecast on the Great Lakes. But I mid-winter rant.

OBTW, have you seen the latest bow lines on a Sea Ray in the latest Seaworthy (Boat US' publication) Magazine...of course that's after kissing an ICW bank at speed, due to an errant autopilot...ouch! I think it was a SR...
