Planned on more boating
We bought a new 18ft I/O this year and planned doing more boating than in other years. The four cylinder burns about 1/2 the gas as the V8 in our other boat so that helped offset the higher gas prices. The ride isn't as smooth as in a bigger boat but we did manage to get some nice rides in. Mother Nature definitely cut back on our boating plans. Rain seemed to be the norm this summer. I think it was nice two days during our two weeks in August and we had daily thunderstorms during our week in July. On a positive note I was not at work so overall it was a nice summer at the lake.
