Well Now That Summer Is Done How Many Hours Did You Guys Put On The Boats.

[John Morgan]

I put a whopping 21 hours on this summer! I know, I wish I could have done more. There's still a little time in my neck of the woods.

I'm at about 80 hours this year and plan to keep her in at least another month! I definitely got some use out of it this year.

I put in about 70 hours a year but have the advantage that we can boat all year in Southern California

A whole 3 hrs...

In southern Ontario this year we have experienced the worst summer of weather in years. I live in Toronto and keep my boat ( in water) at the south end of Lake Simcoe ( Pefferlaw) .We are weekend boaters so the decision to go up to the boat is based on weather conditions.Yes ,it's only a 60mile trip up but if Lake Simcoe is blowing ,my wife and kids really don't enjoy the ride. As a kid 1 remember going out on the roughest days ( by myself,No life jacket) and having a blast with my dad's cedar strip runabout( I eventually cracked the transom).
Back to the hours this year -probably 20 hours ,added up over about 7 trips up.
Best run was from Pefferlaw to Barrie ,about 45 miles each way . Best surprise-we got to Barrie and were starving.There is a HOOTERS right on the waterfront.I was happy to buy lunch ,my two young son's were in heaven!!!

I probably put 30 hours on clock, but likely spent 3x that just anchored and chillin'

August on the Bruce Peninsula was amazing. Only rained 4x, 2 of which were at night. Couldn't understand why all the folks "down south" were complaining about the crappy weather.

I have only 6 hours ( 2 trips ) on the clock; spend more time installing add-ons than taking it out to the water due to my workload. Lets hope next season will be better... at least the boat stays new

94 hours here and still have not seen the whole lake... The season is not over yet I have a couple more months maybe I'll hit 100.

Random guess for me.

Season started in July due to parts for the carb rebuild to come in. So July to September 21st. July / Aug was wet, handful of times going up there, no big trips this season. Only did one lock through and paid for SIX (that was a waste of about $50-60 that was)..

I have loosely jotted down my times, so im just going to guess-timate around 20-30hrs somewhere...?

No hour meter on my boat, so a pen a paper from the time the blower is on to the time ended for that trip for that day (if I remember). Which also would not factor in stopped for an anchor times. Which was also something we didn't really do either.
