Just changed the oil
In Response To: sitting watching it rain ()

Had a wonderful sail on Sunday, averaging about 8-9 k in flat water. Drained the hot oil when leaving the boat. Went out to the mooring tonight after work and spun off oil filter on the cold engine. Much easier to handle a cool filter than a scalding one. Refilled with fresh oil and ran it a few minutes. All set to take it to the marina this weekend for winter haul out. Left the sails up, as the forcast is good for a last sail.

End of season is a bit sad for me. A long winter ahead not sailing. Next toy is a new snow thrower. If we don't get much snow it's because I spent the $$$.
