that's too bad...so what do you log for hours in a year roughly

Not enough. Kids sports and wife's work schedule have made it tough the past couple years to get out as often as I would like.

Can't remember exactly, I think we are maybe around 75 hours after two full years. But, we do spend a lot of time floating. So, a full day on the water may only put 2 or 3 hours on the engine.

Once the ice clears up there, how much are you able to make it onto the water?

[knottsindy]

floatin or pullin, it's good to be on the water!! Last year I took the whole month of August off and we went to Koocanusa for 2 weeks and to the Shuswaps for two weeks and we were on the water every day...hope to do the same this year

Locally we get out once every set off even if its only for 3 or 4 hours. Last year I was a little under 100 but like you said there's quite a bit of float time with the kids too!

(That includes the time we spent in BC)

Nice! I spent a month one summer (about 13 years ago) working at Koocanusa. Stayed in Eureka. Contractor was putting a concrete overlay on the bridge that spans the lake. Although, I don't know if you go down that far.

I imagine that is some cold water, in the August.

Gotta get the kids done with learning to ski this summer. My wife doesn't want to "confuse" them by teaching them wakeboarding before they are confident in skiing first. Chit - they will outgrow the wakeboard before long

If memory serves, we were about 72 F last year; considering its flowing all summer long I guess a guy shouldn't expect too much more? We camp about 12 miles north of the US border at a place called Waldo Cove.

Hmmm...

Well, they weren't bikini pics, so you aren't missing anything.

they were just pics of our boat and my kids on the trainer skis...they are from photobucket, so maybe your firewall doesn't like that

[knottsindy]

maybe, they the same ones from the album on your profile? Cute kids, how old?

[dingleberry]
