    Miserable Midwest Spring

    8 days until the dock is supposed to go in, I doubt it will happen. Luckily it will be wet, windy and cool during that period.

    Miserable Midwest Spring

    How is that possible the lake I am on is over 80% covered in ice I am probably 100 miles south, guess being deep makes a difference. It freezes up late here too.

    Miserable Midwest Spring

    Supposed to get the dock put in May 7th, really starting to doubt that lake is still 95% ice covered. Been a horrible, snowy, windy winter in Central Minnesota and the spring we are at 20 days below average temps so far in April. If I see snow again I may shoot holes in my freezer.

    Has anyone seen or heard of a trailer tire doing this?

    I was going thru a Dairy Queen drive thru and I was watching the tires to stay off the curb, I noticed a bulge in one of the tires. It was a nerve wracking slow drive on the back roads to get home.

    Prepping aluminum boat for salt water slip

    I would ask the marina if they have a dry storage option, sure takes a little longer to get on the water, call ahead and pay to have it in the water when you show.

    Anchor line/rode size

    When I park at the dock I use rope to tie the boat off, when somebody is going to ski I throw them the tow rope, when I anchor use anchor rope. If somebody insists I use their terms at my place on my boats I tell them to get over themselves.
