Good to hear from everyone and the common good news is that we're all still boating !

I swear it's been a better Summer since Labor Day than it was before Labor Day. Sept, Oct & Nov (so far) has been beautiful. My boat is coming out today, guess I won't get greedy and risk going much further.

Doug the lead time on Travelift parts is ridiculous ! We're buying spare parts that we don't need just to be sure that we can keep going. Maybe that's their marketing strategy, but it's awful and we've been waiting for parts too. Luckily our lift is still running though.

So the big wait begins, hope you all have a great Thanksgiving !

We just got word that the parts are on the way and they hope to have the work start next Wednesday (11/24).

I'm glad I'm out.
