Waltham Charles
First test of new engine and all winterized equipment, started at 530 and had to break the ice on the ramp to get boat in.
New 15 hp runs smooth starts right up, so I go as far on charles as I can upward to 95.
Well let me tell ya when your wife says its too cold and then teh ankerrope and the rods freeze over, she might be right ....
but what eves so charles waterlevel is very low and its between 39 and 40 F, all shorelines are free and you can get really close to the broder that are normally are filled with waterplants.
crawled with the boat thru some less than 1ft water channels - nothing - didnt even see a fish
but hey first time out - new engine is a blast
and i got a nice sunburn in the face so it's not a total loss
