    Looks like a lot of weight on the wings.

    Snow doesn't belong on SeaReys nor sailboats.

    Believe it or not, the actual weight of the snow is minimal! I'd guess no more than 20 pounds per wing. Note the lack of slack in the tiedowns. It was a very dry and light snow, felt like styrofoam, but still took some time to shovel a path to taxi.

    Mark, maybe you should have pulled the gear up, dropped her on her belly and slid it out that way. Then bring the plow truck in.

    It may be light and it may feel like styrofoam, but that snow stuf is still too damn cold!

    Why would someone spend 40-50K and then not spend the extra$$ to preserve and protect the investment???Why? How does Mark fly?<br />

    snow is not going to hurt a plane, it's easier on it than rain.

    I feel your pain Mark. I brushed Streaker off this week. By today, all the ice and snow had melted out of the control surfaces. Hangers???? Hangers are for whimps...
