Don't feel bad I am not on the water either,I could see the water (100 yards) away but it was a working weekend at my buddies lake house and had to get back to my house for our 29th wedding anniversary :D Would have rather been at the lake house with mrseagle

I spend more time with my boat in the driveway instead of the water. Powerhead rebuild going on now...

Ya I know how you feel, every week it's been something new, I am about to rename my boat from WavenBye to "SittingBY"

Re: everyone is on the water but me...

All two of my runs this year in the "pleasure" boat have been for testing purposes. I did have one mock run in the driveway when my wife, my son, and I were hanging out in the boat during a decarb.

Fortunately I also have a new (2008) jon boat that doesn't require work yet so I get to use that boat for it's intended purpose - on the water.
