Chris,
Can you give a brief rundown on the 35? I’ll post it to our club email. I have 
4 boats right now, so my wife will likely revolt at a 5th.
Which 40 did you get? I went all the way to Maine to pick one up and found she 
had hit a rock at speed ☹

Hi Chris,

Yes those days are long gone, the old bones wouldn't stand up to that.  Nice 
work on the C&C 40, that would be my next choice if/when I succumb to the urge 
to upgrade.

Memory lane here:  years ago I raced International 14's out of Severn Sailing 
Association in Annapolis.  One of the big events of the year was the Ice 
Bucket, held on January 1, a distance race up/back the Severn River, as long as 
the river was ice-free.  Yes, year round racing.

In 2014 we went to Rock Hall right after the ice got broken enough to get out 
of our slip and the marina in Rock Hall was so amazed anyone showed up we got a 
free slip 😊
I usually haul out in August for bottom paint, the yard is half-empty then.

Around Annapolis, on Chesapeake Bay, many boats stay in the water year round or 
haul every other winter for bottom work, or do a short haul for that.  Another 
group hauls out every Fall, October/November and stores on the hard till 
April/May and relaunches then.  Like Joe said, there is racing somewhere most 
of the year.

Historically, the Bay can freeze over like it did in 1977 and 2014.  The 
shallower areas where we keep our boats, can freeze every year, so we keep 
bubbler systems running in the winter.  We didn't have any ice around the boat 
the last few years and I don't think the bubbler was even needed, but we keep 
it powered up and connected to a thermostat, because of years prior.

We can go years between seeing any snow that sticks to anything on the island 
here. Since we moved to Maryland in 1969 winter prep for boats has changed. In 
1970 most boats were covered or out of the water for winter, now we usually are 
out most months. I think January is the only month with no racing.

Lucky you. You don’t have to deal with 2.5 – 3 m of snowfall each winter.

I haven’t thought about covering the entire boat in decades. What I do is put a 
yoga mat over the forward hatch, covered by a 6x6 blue tarp, held down by the 
anchor chain lying on it. This insulates the hatch to prevent condensation 
landing on the v-berth and my forehead if I am in it while still allowing the 
hatch to be opened from inside so the hatch is still an emergency exit.
