You guys have a great attitude! I am all for the bottom work... dry spell? Just means its time to prep for race season... Where's the [wet]sander, I'll help!

Also, looks like the docklines held nicely.

That's good to hear! Is the water level down though? It's gotta be with the drought you guys are having!
