Posted By: Rob Myran, Precision 21, GlenL Minuet; Western WI Date: 3/15/10 2:05p.m. Report: outside forum guidelines In Response To: LOL! I am going to keep a sharp eye for ice free water. (Rob Myran, Precision 21, GlenL Minuet; Western WI) The red River in Minnesota is flooding at Fargo Moorehead. All the Northern snow-pack makes its way down the Mississippi eventually, there can be quite a crest - often 4 to eight feet above normal. If it get real high and our boats are in their slips it will lift the docks right out. So, we need to wait until the worry is past before putting the boats in permanently. That does not prevent a day sail or two if I get the time to do it.
