I hope santa pays you a visit. Happy Holidays

Marc,
No we have missed our window up there. It is simply TOO cold and there is also a small possibility of snow there tonight. It will only be in the 30's the rest of the week. They will winterize it for me and I'll drag her back to North Carolina and wait the weather out. Sometimes we will get a nice upper 50's into 60 degree day here in North Carolina in December and if that happens I will splash her and see how she does. I remember going boating on Christmas day about seven years ago.
Take care
Dock

Dock, you have all kinds of self control. That project is like baking a huge batch of cookies and you can't take 1 ! I have done several modifications in the dead of winter when I had my shop in Michigan. Couldn't ever wait for a warm day...actually pushed ice off the ramp to launch one to test. Now I look back and realize the pressure of cold air on a bare mellon at 103' in 26degree weather was a bit demented to say the least! I hope you have all the rewards of their labor dialed in soon.Enjoy and be safe.

I bet we get a 60 degree day again before Christmas and I'll play hookie if necessary to run the boat.
