What did your boat dock..................

Drive up dock, 25 foot floater with water, electric and dock box. The marina has 250 slips total, a pool, clubhouse and top notch mechanics. The owners (3rd generation) live on site. http://www.romps.com/ We moved to this marina because of our bad experiences with the dufus *OMC Certified* mechanics at the marina we were at last year. So how about you? Moved from open moorage (about $5k per year in a "public" marina) to covered moorage at over $6k. My covered moorage is something of a "deal", as the owner plans to leave the cover on and pass along the cost of meeting the new fire codes. Will probably be $7k - $8k per year at that point. It's possible to pay the same per month for open moorage in this area if you don't shop carefully- and the moorage market hereabouts is always a sellers market. Fixed or diminishing supply, increasing demand. It sounds like a deal, considering a 12 month moorage, the size of the slip (based on what I know about your boat) and the fact that it is covered. Our contract is only from April 1 to November1. Regarding Bassies comment about the pool......I agree to a point. When boating conditions are right and the Lake temp is warm enough we prefer to swim off the boat at our local swimming spots. However, there are many times when bad seas keep us off the Lake. In those instances, having a pool at the marina is a plus. If the weather is crappy enough to keep you off of the lake, then isn't it usually crappy enough to keep you out of the pool?? I was not talking about the weather. I was talking about the conditions on the Lake. There are many times where where the weather but we see small craft warnings are in effect. Huh? |
