    Default Saddest part of Winterization... at least for me..

    I keep all the gear in the basement over the winter. So I had to carry it all down tonight. 4 wakeboards, 2 kneeboards, 2 surfboards, 2 big inflatables, the Air Chair, several skies, ballast bags, ropes, 3 wetsuits, 10 ski vests, and misc other stuff. Just about wore myself out. Next getting the engine winterized. Hopefully by the end of the week. I am building a wheelchair ramp for my cousin that had a stroke a couple years ago, and her insurance won't get her the chair, until she has a ramp into the house. Not my speciality but I will get it done since no one else will help her out.





    And just the first part of the ramp.



    I will have a lot more energy carrying all the stuff back up in the spring. Hope to be able to get out in april next year.

    Now will you southern guys start planning the reunion for next year so I have something to look forward to?

    Wow, that's a lot of gear. Do you keep that all in the bow?

    Good on you for building the ramp. If you were closer I'd offer to help.

    We better have a reunion.

    We keep a lot of it in the boat, but I also keep what I don't think I will be needing that day in the garage. Had some help today got a lot more done on the ramp. Wife is talking about the reunion. So if there is one, I am pretty sure we will be there.

    good on you for building your cousin the ramp! Keep the percentage of incline very low such that she on her own can propel the chair upward on and over the ramp.
    Have had lots of experience with this in past with family.
    Good luck.
