Long wait for Summer
Most marinas will wait until the ice is gone, but also make sure that there are no more nights that the boat could freeze up. They are reluctant to put a boat in and run the motors because of the liability involved in a freeze up.
There is at least one marina on the lake that puts the boats in as soon as their marina is without ice. They do not start the boats but push them into their slips and go back and start them later when they know the cold nights have passed.
Good plan! Avoids the spring rush!
