While not in the lakes region, the registration for the boat is soooo. I put the cover on the boat the day after Christmas. and it rained putting a couple of section down holding a puddle. That puddle froze solid over night must be about 5" thick. I did not think it had been that cold in CT to do that.
Someone said 79 days till spring, well there is no polnt to having ice in then. Put the boats in the water, keep it moving and we will be all set till summer.
Happy New Year yall,
