[quote=solsailer18]Lol! Ok, sounds like good advice. The lake I sail on most isn't a mountain lake as I first stated, it's actually a reservoir called Fern Ridge in Eugene, OR. It's pretty shallow (about 30' at it's deepest point and thus it warms up fairly quickly, if and when the sun decides to show up. I've already got a full length wet suit that I've used for jet skiing last summer so I should be able to get an early start this year. One thing I'm a little concerned about is the depth of the lake being a problem if I were to turtle the boat for some reason. How do you deal with that situation (your mast stuck in the mud,) without having another boat pull you over. Hopefully it won't be an issue but I'm not sure how well the mast will float and for how long if I manage to dump the boat.
Got the boat pulled up to the shop today and stripped it down. I'm thinking that despite my earlier enthusiasm for painting the hulls I may have to hold off this year and just cut and buff them. Their are several deep scratches and a few half assed ding and chip repairs to be fixed again, so I've still got plenty of work to do. Too many other projects of my dads taking precedence for shop time. :) It's all right though plenty of time to paint them next year.
