How cold is TOO cold?

Cold temps

todda,
WOW that's pretty cold. I have been in a contest with one other ski boat this year of who will be the last to go out. I won, but at a price - it was only 52' water temp with a dry suit, after reading the above I feel like a whimp - smile. I am in Oregon, McMinnville area - the river is too flooded now to even try. If I did I would be posting "How do you replace the drive shaft yourself" - smile.

RE: Cold temps

we started with a 100 degree rule, but got greedy and lowered it to a 80 degree rule a few winters ago. we even went once at 75. it was snowing, but it was new years day so we just had to. wasn't too aweful bad.

RE: Cold temps

I think today was the last day for us. It was just a touch under 40(air), water temp was 41.5 and wind was 20mph. Still fun though! :grin: The ponds already are iced over and I'm guessing that the lakes will start getting ice in the next day or two.

RE: Cold temps

882001- Air temp of 80 sounds beautiful. We got our first frost up here in Wa state last night, air temp today supposed to hit a
high of 43 deg. We are planning on a after Turkey day ski tomorrow, supposed to hit 45 mid day! Texas sounds very very nice right about now!

Air Jeff- I have nothing to complain about! Brr, at least our lakes don't often freeze over up here!
