Bad boating weather so far on East coast??

[patrolcarr]

Is it me, or is this one of the worst boating seasons in recent memory? I cant remember 2 good days in a row this year so far. Maybe its me, but does anyone else think this years weather is less than perfect??

It's been awful. It's either a gazillion degress and muggy or it's raining like all heck. I'm glad I have lot's of miniproject on her to keep me busy.<br /><br />And as Ray says, it's great iBoating weather. I'd just add it's also a good time to... uhum... stock up on parts and accessories

It's been the same thing in the Gulf of Mexico this year. Rain, rain,rain and more rain. The rivers are all up and have the bays and Gulf water dingy and muddy for miles offshore. In a big tournament last month, the big boats were running 80-100 miles offshore to find clean water. I think you're right, it's been the worst year than I can ever remember.

One word........DEPRESSING!<br /><br />Got lost in the fog Sunday, hoping for the weather to break so I can go try out my new compass this weekend but............. extended forecast not good. Well, maybe September will be a good month!

Finally have water to boat in and the weather either drains the life out of you (Heat+Humidity) or it is storming. That's okay though I start back to work tommorow and have gotten some things done around the house I have been wanting to do for a while. I am so glad I have a covereed attached carport.

the weather does suck but I've had a couple of nice days where no-one was out and there was no chop whatsoever. I'm starting to disbelieve the eather reports though the past couple days called for thenderstorms that never came I could have been out boating.

The worst part of this season has not been the weather, that has limited the time I can use my boat, but that darn payment that comes every month!<br /><br />I don't mind makin the payment when I am able to use the thing, but after paying for the slip and ropes and everything else, and nothing but rain all the time, that payment is very depressing.<br /><br />Kenny
