Usually I buy things as I go through the couple of months leading up to boating season. This year I decided to at least try to get it all done at once, so I am not hampered by not having the stuff when I need it.

Today was the day, I ordered some stuff on line . . . including iBoats . . . and went locally for a few other things.

Just want to remind everybody . . . . Don't forget iBoats in your boat prep supply and parts ordering. :)

Thanks, Ted. It helps pay for my unpaid job. :doh:

On a serious note don't forget iBoats will meet or beat competitor prices and using the FORUMS5 discount code saves an extra 5%. Oooooops, there goes my raise. :D

Just ordered a lower unit reseal kit this morning! The extra 5% was a bonus!

I always check IBoats first for the part number I want. If they don't carry it, only then do I look elsewhere.

In any event, all needed parts were bought last Sept / Oct, and if needed, installed around Christmas, before the weather turned too bad.

Right now I have several batteries in the basement, fully charged, all gas tanks are full and stabilized, and waiting to be re-installed.

15 minutes and i'll be back in the water. However.......as i look out my office window I see snow coming down. Its on top of the ice storm that happened yesterday.

My son has a new Crownline paid for and waiting for delivery, but the marina's lake is still ice covered, so the shake down cruise is on hold.

Weather sucks.
