Although it's possible I suppose. With the boat on the hard it's time for other things. The usual boat projects of course, canvas things, varnishing and other projects under the cover. We also have a cabin on 8 acres in the Allegehny Forest which is a hot, humid and buggy place during the summer. Fall, Winter and Spring is a perfect time for hiking and just hanging out. I suppose if we sailed year round the cabin would not be a part of our lives though, I guess we have adapted to a short boating season?
