Right now in NY (Long Island) the water is around 67-68. In the beginning of the season when I launch the boat it's mid-40's.

I find that hard to believe given the popularity of CC's and DC's right now.

Sounds like you already have your answer if water is coming in through the scuppers? I'd pull it and take care of that before your boat becomes a reef.

I wouldn't buy one with that type of motor in the first place. Secondly, if they didn't bother to repair that damage, what else did they not take care of?

This. It's hard to retain workers right now and even harder to get new ones. One of my friends just got a 10k raise for no reason other than that his company doesn't want him to leave.

No way you are getting the F150 Lightning by just walking in the dealer. The wait list is almost two years long. I was one of the first to put down a deposit for one and then when the ordering banks opened the dealer told me they were charging 10k over sticker, I promptly told them where to...

Max towing capacity on the Tacoma is 6,800 lbs. You are either going to be really close or over. So no, I wouldn't do it unless incredibly short distance, as in the ramp is around the corner.

Looks great!

I can't speak for Ky, but sadly I am up at this time everyday, weekend or not. I inherited this annoying trait from my father.

If your battery can't survive a month (or whatever) without needing to be charged it's time for a new battery.

dealer not your problem, it's theirs

When my boat was detailed this spring I ask the detailer about that since I was getting some mold growth inside the cabin despite using desiccant pails (damprid) when in storage. He said he would spray it with a 10% bleach solution; took a couple days to air out but it worked perfectly and looks...

I don't flush because I'm on a mooring. Millions of other boats in a similar situation that have put thousands of hours on their boats without a problem. Sound the alarms!

Learned that last part as a kid when we would find half used flares in the road that the police would use to control an accident scene. We'd take them home to "play" with.
