Couple months ago I was with a buddy checking out his sail boat on Kentucky Lake. He noticed a powerboat low at the transom and got the marina staff on it with a sub pump. We helped a bit. Probably a foot of water in the thing. Don't know what kind of boat, except it wasn't my type. Twin 350 inboards. He told me later it turned out the packing gland was leaking and the battery charger was turned off. It's good to have some traffic at the docks. --Vic |

We either dock the boats (we alway go with at least one other boat) at the City Marina or at one of the hotels that has a dock.
