Drought and boats

The long dry spell is hard on wooden boats. Normally I can swell the seams of my Whitehall in the spring and it is fine as long as it is in the water every few weeks. This year the seams keep opening up. I feel like I'm starting from scratch for the third time this year.

The heat doesn't help. We've had more days above 90 and above 100 than any year since 1955 and little wind. That's too hot to row around.
