Spring Launch??
 

My boat is at Shep's and I was wondering is it safe to have the boat put in at Ice Out or should I wait a couple of weeks after?? I have to let them know 14 days in advance. Thanks.

You might want to check your insurance policy first. I was surprised a few years ago to discover that mine only covered in-water from May 1 to Nov 1. Longer periods will cost more.

For my use, that time period works.

You should be fine, I would not worry about engine freezing at that point. I usually have a boat in the day they call it, if not a few days before. Watch out for floating debris though.

sorry about the spelling, I meant Launch.

Long range computer models are showing another cold spell around the 8th or 9th of April. Be cautious for another chilldown.

Cheers!

Thanks for the heads up, I sent my form in to Shep's and decided on May 5th just to be safe.
