Were not getting the best weather eighter this year. Last year i had almost 15 hrs on the boat. This year i think we have 2 engine hours.Malo <--- Means--Evil or Mean One. This explains a lot.

I dewinterized my boat 2 weeks ago during a nice warm sat afternoon. Hooked up water and flushed system out and ran the motor to check connections etc. Installed and tryed out my new Polk speakers and thought all was good,till about 9pm that night Then wam Snowing like crazy.I couldn't stand it watching this so i had to run out and crawl under the tarp during a mini blizzard and take out the plugs on the motor block and drain that at the very least or else i never would have slept that night. Now just waiting till i'm truely ready to use before it goes back together .

It's global warming...I'm telling ya! Where's Al Gore anyway!
It's colder than normal her in TX too! It sucks if you want out on the lake, but it's pretty darn nice if you are racing cross country (Dirt Bikes!!!). I"ll take one more cool weekend this next weekend!!!Texas is a Great Country!

That sucks. Guess you need to break out the snow skies again. I was watching the weather and last year in Oregon we had 8 days of over 70* and 2 of the days where over 80*. This year we have 2 days over 70.
Membrain, Remember Al Gore and his band that can't shoot stright where proved wrong on global warming so they changed the name to climent shift. Wait don't we have 4 major changes to the weather a year.2008 Outback V - Sold but never forgotten.
