DULUTH - The latest winter blast is not sitting well with local boaters.
People at Barker's Island Marina are anxious to start boating season.
Clients have been in and out of the Marina to check up on their boats, while awaiting warmer weather.
The Marina likes to start launching boats in April and be in full spring by mid-May.
However, the long winter is giving them some extra time to catch up on their chores.
They stay busy all winter, repairing, remodeling, and refinishing boats.
It's not too late to get your boat fixed, whether it's your toilet, GPS system, radar or motor.
