Since Kyra and Greta are taking responsibility for our house while we’re serving a mission, we’ve had to show them all the stuff they need to know. We toured the boiler room, talked about the solar panels, tested the generator, installed the “smart home” apps, looked at the irrigation system, planned for the orchard, and on and on. One of the things on our (long) list was to de-winterize the jet skis. It served a dual purpose: not only would it get them ready to go out on the lake, but they’ll need to winterize them in the fall anyway, so they’ll reverse the process.
We took off the tarps, installed the batteries, checked the oil, and then loaded up the trailer. Off to Yellow Bay!
Although it was a chilly 55 or so, the sun was shining and it was a beautiful spring day.
Kyra practiced backing down the boat ramp– not an easy thing to do, although much easier without anyone else waiting in line! We put the jet skis in the water and gave them a test run.
Wetsuits were a must, because the water temperature was probably less than 50 degrees. We had a good time putting the jet skis through their paces, and then came back in to the dock.
Now all’s ready for a summer of fun!
