Did you notice his marina puts the trailer on blocks? I
knew if my father did it, it might be overkill, but there
was some engineering reason behind it.
My dealer doesn't, and he stores hundreds of boats over the
winter for customers. Mostly larger boats, too.
I can think of a few reasons. The tires will develop flat
spots over time. That happens with our
vehicles in Florida over the summer while we're gone. It
takes a few
weeks of driving around before they go away.

Another traditional reason is security. It is much more
difficult to
steal a trailer and boat if there are no wheels on the trailer.
It's even harder if all the stored boats are locked up in an
active fenced storage facility where no one is allowed to move
boats except dealership employees, and there's a watchman.
It's a huge facility, and the grounds outside the boatyard has
a number of other high value clients. Oh, and there's a
watchman service. This is not your average mom and pop
boatstore operation.
Yep - keep on thinking that.
With all those other boats, why would someone mess with a LTP?




It's mildly funny when Shortpants Tom says this, but when a
boating numnutz like you does, it just makes you look dumber than
usual. Your comments, after all, are based on what? Your
imaginary trips across the dangerous waters of Lake Lanier?

Harry,
This was not suppossed to set you off, it was a little joke, since
you seem to like the same joke made by SWS, Eisboch, and numerous
others, I didn't think it was **** you off.

I do have to tell you I really don't have any imaginary boating
experience, all of my are real.

Sure, Reggie. Just like all your 50 IDs here are real.
Yes, they are just as real as HK, SWS, JimH, Eisboch or any others.


Everyone knows my real name, just as they know Tom's real name and
just about everyone else's real name here. The one posters who work
so hard at remaining anonymous are the a**holes like you.


I think Reggie's real name is Reginald. He just wants everyone to *think*
that's not his real name. Hell, if you were named Reginald, wouldn't
you do
the same?

I'd rather be named 'Sue' than 'Reginald'!



No one is named "reginald" except that character in the "archie" comic
strip.


Harry,
JohnH might be right, but the thing is, you don't believe anything I
say, so why would you believe me if I told you what my name is? You
don't believe me when I mention my boat, my wife or my 3 kids in
passing. I am not sure if you believe I have two dogs, but I do. Oh, I
also had a mother and father.
