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 ☹

Nice work on the C&C 40, that would be my next choice if/when I succumb to the urge to upgrade.

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.

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.

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.

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.
