Last day on the lake

Tacit Blue · 11-17-2005, 12:31 PM

It was my last weekend on the lake as well. Went down Paugus Bay as far as Lakeport. It was my first time through the channel or on Paugus Bay. Usually my mast is up and I can't fit under the bridge, but mast was down in preperation for trailering home. I was surprised at the current that was whipping through the Weirs channel! There were more boats on the lake than I thought there would be. Oh well, until next season.

We put the Mee'n'Mac away 2 weeks ago as of now and you late season boaters are just killing us

so stop it ! Now really I guess it's time to freeze up so just give me time to un-FFLrate my dock and all will be well

As to Alton bed races .... perhaps "we" should start a separate thread to discuss a "Winni.com" entry ?

...and I thought last weekend was my last boat ride. The Snake Eyes modem stopped working last week and I just had to make another trip north. My boat is out of the water so I hitched a ride out with friends. Snake Eyes is back in operation and I got to see this view again. It was very cold, but my usual get up kept me nice and warm. (that is ice on the rocks)

IG, you may hereby consider me your "surrogate snowdancer".

I promise to dance in your honor at least once per day until such time as we have sufficient snowcover to allow me to take up your gracious offer to become a Babette on Sleds.

I will also be dancing for enough snowcover to allow me to go tramping with Upthesaukee and Mrs. Upthesaukee!

Pepper, we are happy to have you join in the dance

! The more the merrier... I will be putting the snowmobile trailer in its ready to roll location today so it won't get snowed in.

With all the boaters still on the lake, are the gas pumps still in operation?
On the Anchor Marine Cam, it looks like they are not open.
Where do boats gas up this late in the season?

It seems that I do this every year.

Pulled the old Misty out the day before Thanksgiving. Water temp was about 40, the air was 16 deg.F.

The wind was howling as I headed to Center Harbor to pull. The windshield froze with lake ice and it was either stick my head out the hatch or go on to electronics! She is now pulled drained and stored. Man was I bummed.

The next day, Thanksgiving, the Fam. and I were heading south for the holiday with my New York inlaws. Wow Weee, what fun?

Any way, while passing the Meredith town docks there it was, coming out of a blizzard. A genuine mid-sixties Century Coronado! She was burgundy and cruising past the docks on the plane doing figure eights and loop the loops bow wake splash'en in the snow with the top down! Awsome.

I did get the bow numbers but I ain't narc'en that guy out!

So while my family happily sat around and watched Bullwinkle float past Times Square I sat back and thought about that crazy runabout. Man you made my day.

Misty Blue.
