The Admiral, being the Admiral asks: How are you going to get that barral down the dock without letting it roll in to the water? Me: a link at a time sweetheart, a link at a time! She was not impressed....

Kevin,

A little thread drift here ... Having only spent time in Beautiful Alaska during the summer, it's hard to imagine that March weather compared to here, but what is acceptable outside temp for the Alaskan boater to work outside?

Generally if its sunny, the 30's are OK but you need light gloves for any extended time. That's hoodie weather for me.

If its in the 40's especially if its sunny, that is a nice day to get things done.

As it is now, with highs in the 20's and windy I'm limiting my work outside to going to the truck, or the store for something. Yesterday I cut a piece of starboard using a skill saw in the cockpit and it was unpleasant.

Alaskans are weird. When it gets above 50 a good percentage, not everybody but a good percentage break out the shorts.

I've seen the jet skiers out the day the lake breaks up. Thats truly masochistic.
