\nI’m trying too get the cockpit cover on the boat before the sky starts to fall…<\/small><\/p>\n

It’s not that\u00a0uncommon\u00a0to have a thunderstorm pop-up when out boating on the river, especially during the latter half\u00a0of the summer when\u00a0temperatures are in the 90’s. So before heading out on the boat, I hit up the local radar and marine forecast to try and determine what the afternoon will bring in the way of weather and plan my boating day accordingly.<\/p>\n

This past Sunday would be one of those day when we had to head back in early… and believe me, it was a good call to cut and run when we did. Some of the wind gusts in the marina were as high as 60 mph and even though we didn’t have much trouble getting back into our slip, some of our dock mates were not quite as fortunate. I’ve added some photos of the festivities for your viewing pleasure… enjoy!!
