Winterizing? Summerizing? Covering? Trailering? If it is about a boat out of water put it here.

I had to cut the cover to let some air flow in last weekend, it was indeed to hot under the covers!

But isn't it great seeing all the activity in the marina's in mid March?

Let's all hope the summer proves as nice as late winter/early spring!

Just purchased my first Chris, 1959 conqueror - It's going to be an interesting ride!
