I've boated here since the 1970's. The ramps were similar in 2005 and the look was almost the same. We launched on the dirt then as this year and maybe for the next few years. No one can predict the future, but it may be different now. A drought may be a long term reality, or it may be a few years duration. Extend the ramps now and let's use what we have now and see what the future brings.

I am unable to open the sliding windows on my explorer. The latches seem to be operating properly but cannot get any movement when pulling backwards. Any suggestions on freeing will be appreciated.

Tom, if that is a FORD Explorer, I have no idea.

If it is a C-Dory, try to move the window forward, (towards the bow), rather than back. Sometimes they need to go forward to unlatch. Also a real good dose of warm fresh water may help to loosen, and dissolve the salt in the slide. After you get them open, a spray with "Dry Rollers" a dry silicone spray will help keep them free.
