With negative temperatures outside and lots of white stuff on the ground, I decided to look at some videos and pictures of our beloved boats on the site today. Not a great idea. While I had many warm thoughts of the boating season past and visions of the boating season to come, I did get a little depressed because it seems forever away that I can actually use Perfect Heaven II again.

With that said, though, I am again blown away by how beautiful Yamaha boats are. I am not taking anything away from the other brands represented on here, as I know every person has their own tastes and some will differ with me. However, I can look at Yamaha's that are over 12 years old and they still look beautiful. Yamaha has designed boats with timeless shapes. Other manufacturers stick with the trendy and in time the designs look dated.

Anyhow, back to work and thoughts of Summertime!
 
Is it SPRING yet?
 
Well, not to rub it in...(well maybe a little) but took the boat out this last Saturday. Started out gloomy but turned out sunny and 75. That night dropped to 24 degrees and hasn't really warmed up since. I'm ready for some spring weather!

I'll keep my South Florida mouth closed so no one kills me...I feel for y'all up North and glad I don't like in Western NY anymore.
