Once the weather breaks I have a ton of work to do before we launch.

1. Rip out cockpit carpeting and install new carpeting.
2. Install new helm seat and pedestal.
3. Install second battery and A/B switch.
4. Gelcoat repair on 3 dings.
5. Epoxy coat the bottom (the boat was always trailered before and has
no bottom paint)
6. Bottom paint the bottom
7. Install bimini.
8. Install new CD player/FM radio.

Items 3, 7 and 8 may wait till the boat is launched and dockside....it
all depends on how fast I get the other stuff done and if the weather
cooperates.

So how about you? What things do you have to do to your boat before
Spring launch.


My wife and I took a little trip this afternoon to pick our dock at the
new marina. #303 with the ramp on my starboard. Nice drive up dock
with plenty of grassy and tree filled areas..........more importantly
quite cheap at $950 for the season, including water and electric. ;-)

Mine just went up to $1825 and it isn't a drive up either






We were paying close to that when we had our 32 footer, but it was a drive
up dock and quite nice.

What's a "drive up dock"?

Drive up right to your dock.........no need to walk down finger piers to
your boat hundreds of yards from where you parked.

Picture's worth a whole bunch of words! I'm going to assume that the slip
and the parking space are a matched set. Looks nice. And convenient.

Yep.

That was our old marina. Our new one is not as nice (amenity wise) but
actually has more open grass/tree area to picnic in....more of a park like
setting. When we drive up to our dock our boat will be sitting 15 from the
car, with a grassy area in front and a large park like setting behind.

Land next to a lake is not a $1,000,000+ an acre in Ohio.

A full acre of lakeshore (Lake Erie) property in the suburbs certainly is.
