Default City Isaland winter storage

Looking for a place to haul for the winter on City Island. Got the contract
from Barron's Boat Yard,

Dave, any of the non-full service yards are fine. Harlem, City Island or
Styvesant for example.

Any recommendations?


keep your stuff locked up. There's a lot of big fat thieves hanging
around City Island.

Looking for a place to haul for the winter on City Island. Got the contract
from Barron's Boat Yard, and I see that they insist on painting the bottom.

Greedy ****heads.

most boatyards in the state of new york insist that customers can not bottom
paint their boats. nys has declared bottom paint to a pesticide and require
licenses to apply it. there are fines for non-compliance. you can try
Connecticut, which state feels differently about bottom paint. Rumor has it
New Jersey is ****ty about bottom paint as well.

Jax, the law was challenged and then dropped as of last year.

Interesting. Apparently some boat yards don't know about the change. I just
sent a copy of the article reporting it to Barron's.

In case anybody wants it to show his own yard, the article can be found at
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0BQK/is_6_8/ai_110961087

Most yards found it too profitable and continue to enforce the no-painting
rule.
