It's that time of year again! The time where we all hitch up our boats and inadvertently jam up the streets. It's always best to get your boat out of storage early and bring it in for maintenance. In fact, with the sheer volume of boats in the city and the chaotic environment right now, you may find it difficult to get in to your regular shop. In that case, you might as well hitch it up and tow it around Minneapolis until you find a shop that's able to take you in.

Be sure to be neighborly and help relay this information to our esteemed guests from out of town.

• Put a blanket out tarp over your windshield! No scraping or brushing snow!
• Windshield already frozen? Melt all that ice with a pot of hot water. Hot melts cold!
• Pam cooking spray is also great at preventing ice from sticking to your windshield!
• Stuck in the snow or ice? Floor it, eventually you'll get to pavement and get out. Not sustaining this action is everyone's biggest mistake.
• Still stuck? Get your buddy to floor it. While the tires are spinning, dump kitty litter under them to give instant traction!
• Cold apartment or hotel room? Turn the oven on and leave the door
