Question Any PQ's on the water yet

I'm going crazy here in Michigan. Have a ton of new stuff to install
but due to my poor position in storage I'm unable to get her out.
I need some warm weather to get the fair weather bunch out!

Yup, been out three times so far. Splashed her yesterday for a short ride before changing the oil. It's been one cold, rainy year. I probably had 30 or more hours by this time last year.

My question is where the heck is the water!!!

Down a foot from last year in Lake St. Clair.

Need 8-10 inches to get my 340 off the lift.

Army corp predicting this is it.....but I gotta believe the runoff from the UP has not happened yet.

We have the same problem with the low water on the St. Joe River heading out to Lake Michigan. We need rain in a bad way! My last venture out at the end of last year, we had to run the drive up, from the launch to the 1st bridge. I've never seen it so low. I just bought a new Bravo 1 prop and am not looking foward
to dulling the finish so soon.

I was out Sat. and Sun. The water was cold but the sun felt nice. There wasn't a lot of pleasure boaters....mostly fisherman. I HAD under 2 hrs on my boat so I am breaking it in. I do need to take it back to the dealer to check on a few things. The port side trim tab is not working and the silent choice exhaust isn't so silent.

PQConquest,

Not the big lake, but the IL River! Planning a trip to lake michigan this summer. Can't wait to cruise the lakefront and the chicago river.
