I feel your pain.. :evil: I had to put all my canvas up, put on my insulated vent covers, and flip the breakers for the bilge heaters a week or so ago. Then last week, we pulled off the vent covers and went for a ride.

I need to listen to that station - I have heard the exact opposite - "Old school Canadian winter"!

I hope your right and I'm wrong....

For me winter is the time to plan the next seasons trips. It is also a time to save up some $$ for the next season. Of course this seasons layup is the time for them to fix my port side transmission so I will be able to enjoy next season.

I have heard all three versions of this coming winter..... I am betting on lots of snow. Higher than usual Jet stream path bring cold NW wind of a warm Lake Huron and Georgian bay...... get the shovels out.... :banghead:
