I have owned a snowblower since the 1978 blizzard...never have I had a clog that would not unclog itself by just backing up. Yes I do spray everything with some slickery stuff......NEVER have I even thought about sticking my hand in there ! Just shows " you can't fix stupid"....

Speaking of snow, I was wondering....can the weight of a LOT of snow on my boat, that is sitting on a roller trailer punch the rollers thru the hull? Its a fiberglass 20ft boat with a 90hp on it as well. Its that white lump next to my garage!

Mine has been on a roller 40 years... no issues yet. It's seen worse. Of course I may have spoke too soon.

I was looking for an excuse not to have to go up to my waist and try to shovel it off, and you just provided it, thanks!

That is the sort of snow we get every winter living in the snow belt of Lake Ontario. As long as you keep your roof from collapsing you guys should be alright

nah, the snow load is equal to you and two buddies standing in the boat on the trailer drinking beer.

I usually am more concerned for the cover. So I waded out waist deep and brushed mine off.

Same mines been on the same roller trailer since I’ve owned it, I did add some rollers to spread the load out better but it’s been fine.
