Time to get the boat ready!
Okay Jordan Lake is still cold (58 degrees as of Friday). But it's warming up and the weather is certainly getting nicer - it was 80 degrees here yesterday!
Last year, I didn't get the boat ready until Memorial Day (by then, around here, it's summer and the water is plenty warm to swim). But that's because I was having the upholstery redone, and though the guy who did it did a fantastic job at a VERY affordable price, he did have the boat for like 8 weeks!
I got the boat from the dry storage at the Marina yesterday and brought it home. For those of you not in the know, it's a 1986 Glastream 172 (17" bowrider) with a 140 horsepower Mercruiser stern drive. Nice little recreational boat, good for tubing, runs fairly well.
