So Much For Signs Of Spring

[Todd in NY]

In northern NY, March is cranking out more snow than February, and colder temps as well. We've had snow almost every day this month, and it's still snowing and blowing. Ol' man winter just keeps hanging around.

Lol, it was tempting to uncover my boat too, but I decided to just work on it with the cover on. I guess I was working "under cover" so mother nature wouldn't see me setting up my boat

 

Our 10 day forecast didn't look real promising at the time anyway.

We'll just blame the ones who actually made it out on the water. They probably upset mother nature more than you did.

I think you might be on to something after all they did get the ball rolling.

Lol I too started to get working on boat. Installed the door on the shrink wrap and not 3 days later we got 2 foot of snow. I'm ready for weather to break. If this keeps going I'll be lucky to be ready for water by June lol

I got my "new" boat last November, just in time to cover it before our first real snowfall. It needed everything but a VHF marine radio, but the radio needed a new mounting bracket. I still have plenty of work to do before I'm ready for the 2018 season. I was ready for springtime before the end of 2017.

Yes this sucks....my list of outdoor house chores, boat repairs and upgrades, is growing, and the time available before putting boat into harbor is shrinking...I finally bought a heater for garage so i can start on truck stuff this weekend...and im smoking 25pounds of venison jerky...

 

got boat upholstry back from the shop decided to go with a combo blue and white with gold embroidery... now I have to install it...

We did get a decent amout of snow here but yet it was another bust snowmobile season here. Everytime it would get good
(usually middle of the work week) it would just melt or rain by the weekend. So i put the sleds away 2 weeks ago and started organizing tackle for Spring Browns and made a appt to get windows tinted in my boat and its snowd every since. Still isnt enough for snowmobiling but we still have fun with sleds and the four wheeler!!

That upholstery looks great! I know how excited you are to fish your "new" boat. I've only had mine out for the test drive before I bought it.

That's why I sold my sleds last summer. I found very little time or good conditions to use them.
