Did you know this?


Moorings suck. They're for small toy boats and folks

who
can't afford a slip.


What an ignorant ass


Nuff said.

ertion. Having been in slips for years, and then on a
mooring for 4 and now ba Of course, if your priority is

the cable and phone
hookup, and pressure water at the dock rather than making

sure your tank is
topped....or you want to run your AC nonstop....ck to a

slip, I'll take the
four years on a mooring anyday....being in a slip is

annoying, especially on
weekends when people hang off your bow, intrude into your

life, and
generally provide a noise level not found out on the

water. And in storms,
your boat gets rolled around on its' cleats rather than

riding the weather
as it should...bow to.....ok, so it takes time and effort

to row out and
stow your stuff, etc. but it's well worth it to feel your

boat actually
moving underneath you instead of yanking against itself

every time someone
exceeds the No Wake when tied in a slip.....if your

priorities are other
than wanting to be a part of it all...that your boat is

just one more hotel
room....go for the slip....
