You need to take a knee to Kāne. Hawaiian God of creation and the sky. Or his opposite, God of the ocean Kanaloa. Princess PĀNĀNĀ will relay your request via Hula. Any/all funds you can direct my way. NO, no video!

My wife's Hawaiian name.

It was 80 Yesterday Tampa Bay. Beer Can Island
 
River is 52 today, so wont be swimming for a bit :D
 
I was out on the Upper Chesapeake this past weekend. 54 degree water temp. thankful for the low draft allowing me to get the boat in to about knee deep close to the island!
 
53 in Lower Columbia River near Vancouver, WA
 
Lake/River temp was 50 in my area...but hit 64 air temp last Sunday...so we started the season. Should be 60+ this weekend too...warm enough for us.
 
Water temp hit 49 degrees on Sunday, which was warm enough for us to get the dock in (I think we’re the first ones on our side of the lake this year!) and the new lift will be in position Wednesday. Looks like launch and maiden voyage will be on Saturday!
 
60° at Lake Shelbyville, IL on Sunday.
 
Ice just went out on our bay. The rest of the lake is still locked up with ice, but we have a private landing. Crappie Central is open for business!
 
We anchored on an island on Lanier this past weekend and the boat said 76. Definitely warm enough for the kids & dog to swim!
