Only one problem, we have to get by this monster of a storm, plus the week or two of melting. I feel for pour Jenn, and anyone else living in the interior of Mass, RI or CT for that matter, they are going to be dumped on big time. The weather guru's were talking upwards of 40 inches in spots and that could have been 50-60 inches, if the snow were drier with less water content.
Sorry for the mixup John, Saturday was an ok day and my brother in law enjoyed the fishing. He lives in Ellsworth Maine, so his first opportunities to wet a line are during his annual pilgrimage south. He really enjoyed the boat ride past the 15 odd submarines at the navy base in Groton, until the navy boys decided I was running the boat too close and told us to move away.
Hey Slipknot, your guy Paul at Atlantic Boats might be the Suzuki ace, but I'm not happy at all after my first experience with their service department. Bring it in with a shift problem that only happened twice during the winter and then wait over 30 minutes to pick it up on Friday. Then I leave with a broken trailer light lens, launch 5 minutes later down the road and find the throttle cable disconnected and had to pop the cover to correct that. Saturday on the Thames, I find the oil level/temp gauge and the tach aren't working and both were working when I brought the boat in. On top of that I had to pay a $310 labor and $16 parts bill, for them to remove some fishing line from the prop seal, change the lower end grease, pressure test the lower unit, check the cables and control box and sensors.
Sorry for the vent, but I hate service shops (auto & boat) that rape you, JUST BECAUSE THEY CAN.
