WINTER RETURNS TO MUSKOKA

It is with great sadness I must report that winter has returned here at the marina and to Huntsville. When I looked out the window...surprise 1" of white stuff and no sun and no warmth. Could be worse as North Bay and Sudbury apparently both recieved some 3" of the white stuff. Fortunately better weather is coming on the weekend or so the weather people say. Are they ever wrong?

I saw that the Leaf's are having trouble scoring goals again and the defence where they have most of the salary cap money set, still at times does not look like playoff calibur. The Blue Jays have a winning record in their first seek with the pitching looking okay. It was jsut Texas but they have a really good offensive team or so the insiders say. Vernon Wells is tearing the cover off the ball. Vernon is usually stone cold block of ice cold in April.

We are continuing to expand our web site www.huntsvillemarine.com at a rapid pace. In the next few days the Facebook addition is next. My daughter Jaclyn is in charge of this for me. We are also working on a data stream of boat tests from boattest.ca into our site on the HM Boat Reviews page. This is very cutting edge stuff as no one is doing this in Canada of USA. Our goal is high, we want the very best maina web site avialable here in Ontario and perhaps in Canada. As a side note on the site...anyone looking or a deal on a new baot should look at our HM April Boat Specials and Clearance. There is also a very good deal on a new wakeboard tower.

Watch the Master's for a awhile last night...I hate to think how much fertilizer they put done to get that golf course that green. This is the only golf tournament that I normally watch all summer. I am not a big golfer...usually once or twice a season...major scheduling problems with the very busy schedule at the marina. Tiger looked good...playing...man did he mess up...I don't get it...Michael Vick the Atlanta QB imploded with dog fighting and other dum stuff not that long ago...had it all...gave it all away! What is the deal with that commercial with Tiger and his now deceased father? I thought the Nike people and Tiger's new spin team would be better than that.

Huntsville Marine Goes to the Leafs.

Yesterday I had the opportunity with my son Taylor to go to the Leaf game versus the Flyers. The Air Canada Center was certainly rocking and very loud...too bad the Leafs lost 2 to 0. Good game but the Leafs were playing too much of a perimeter game and not crashing the net. They seem to be getting better with the recent trades...maybe next season they can get to the playoffs. My other favourite team the Pittsburgh Steelers are also having their porblems. Big Ben and Holmes are not being role models right now. Number 7 seems to have a real problem and not a good one at that. If it is true he is toast. 120 plus million dollar contract with a morality clause...whats up!

The phone is definitely ringing here at the marina...our storage customers are ready to go boating again. The weather is going to cool here this week and into next and already this week has not been as warm or sunny as last week...closer to April normal. Bye the way I have my first bug bites. We will be starting most of our out of storage on the week of the 26th when we are past the normal time of late night or evening temperatures below zero. Remember that 3 weeks notice is required to take your boat out of storage during the month of May and June.

Met a very nice couple from Sudbury who made the journey to Huntsville Marine and purchased a new 2010 185LX Stingray in platinum grey. They looked at a number of boats...we had the right boat at the right price with the right information. Thanks against Sudbury we appreciate the business.
