Well, It's Winter . . . .Sort of!

     I always considered that winter arrived once I hauled my boat from the water.  ABISHAG was supposed to be hauled on Friday last but she still is afloat. The reason for this is that BOAT/US who was supposed to do less-than-a-mile less haul to Ferry Slip from TYC, got kind of busy. 

     I was working my last Launch Driving shift on Friday and a whole host of boat owners at the club decided that it was the perfect day to get their own crafts haul-out. True they were probably inspired by the weather news which forecast the first Nor'Easter of the season on Saturday. It seemed a good idea. Unfortunately, a number of boats had mechanical problems and would not start. True most of them had been sitting unused for weeks and just wouldn't fire. And like most wise boats, they had bought "TowBoat US" towing insurance and made the call for a tow. That kind of used up the time BOAT/US had for doing the towing, so ABISHAG sat there through Friday, through the Nor'Easter on Saturday, on Sunday through the remains of the storm and on Monday for some reason. I am hoping that today will see her towed and hauled.  Waiting is a pain!
