I have to give a shout out, mad props, boya out to Tony of Shrink or Sink. Came to my house this morning and did an incredible job today.

I would recommend anybody who is storing their boat for a winter to have this done and the best part its not expensive!

Kenny,
My question is why are you shrink wrapping a boat on Feb 9? I do have to agree with shrink wrapping though, did that twice and it worked very very well. Now a days we just find someone with a good barn or storage facility to hide ours from the harsh winters of the north.

I was going to guess he was in the southern hemisphere, but his profile indicates California. Heck, I was just about ready to take the blue tarp off mine!

transfering to Washington in a few weeks and I want to protect it from the long road trip and possible winter weather (yeah right redding is 80 degree's!) otheriwse I would be on the water right now with us having a plus 70 degree sunny week here in Sacramento.

where abouts in washington, bremerton? (a guess based on your profile)

you're in for a weather shock. ;)

actually been pretty nice around here the past few days, but it's a long ways from being warm.

Bruce & Kenny - Cliff rode yesterday. Water 43 air 54 on the south end of LK Samm and was going out this morning also. Conditions have been great but too cold for my liking so I just drive and shoot. Since it was only us and our kids yesterday, I have no pics. Hope Jeff & him took some today. LK WA was glass this morning.

I'll be at Whidbey Island (NAS), I did my research before I chose my orders there and according to weather history it won't as bad as everybody keeps making it out to be. It won't be CA but it doesn't rain as much as Seattle either

Doesn't a dry suit cost as much as shrink wrapping?

(ghostrider_2) · (ghostrider_2) **Join Date: Aug 2004** 02-11-2006, 12:11 AM

I shrink wrapped it for the road trip not because I don't ride in the winter because I do..
