Ok - I have my eye on an old cheap houseboat.
I KNOW it will cost more than I think - but how much? (A Lot I'm
sure!)
Besides the boat repair cost I'm having a hard time finding out the
following in Central NY:
(Know all prices are a range)
How much does it cost to bearth a boat?
By Season? Month? Week? Night? Day?
Only two things I have see are
1. $5 to $6 for day bearthing - but I really think that was for a
SeaDoo.
2. Free Day time bearthing at the Onadaga (SP) Park marinia.

How much does winter storage cost?

This is a small house boat about 25 to 30 feet.

I just Love the idea of puttereing from here to there along the Erie
and the lakes. Communting to work even. (Would need a smal 60 mph
moped too though.)
Now that Snowmobiling Season is over....

Thanks


It's "berthing", not "bearthing".

The park is on Onandaga Lake, one of the most chemically polluted bodies of
water in earth. The damage is WAY beyond the low levels of pollution present
in almost all bodies of water these days, due to a continuous stream of crap
poured into it by an electrical manufacturer over many years. Three years
ago, the NY Dep't of Environmental Conservation used its fishing license
database to send a survey to fishermen. They asked "If we spent the money to
clean up that **** hole of a lake, how likely is it you would fish in it or
let your kids swim in it". Almost 90% of respondents said "Don't bother".

And, if you want to be someplace interesting, look for info on places around
Oneida Lake. Much better choice.
