Default Boating Cost:NY Erie Canal and Area

Ok - I have my eye on an old cheap houseboat.
I KNOW it will cost more than I think - but how much? (A Lot I'm
sure!)
Besides the boat repair cost I'm having a hard time finding out the
following in Central NY:
(Know all prices are a range)
How much does it cost to bearth a boat?
By Season? Month? Week? Night? Day?
Only two things I have see are
1. $5 to $6 for day bearthing - but I really think that was for a
SeaDoo.
2. Free Day time bearthing at the Onadaga (SP) Park marinia.

How much does winter storage cost?

This is a small house boat about 25 to 30 feet.

I just Love the idea of puttereing from here to there along the Erie
and the lakes. Communting to work even. (Would need a smal 60 mph
moped too though.)
Now that Snowmobiling Season is over....

Thanks


By the way, the canal runs right through Oneida Lake.

Hey- Thanks for getting back.
So what type of Hull will hold up against Onadaga's water? Fibergalss?
Aluminum? Wood? or Kevlar? : )
I have spent A Lot of time on NYSs Erie Cannal Site: Actually it was
that site 3 or 4 years ago with its offer to win a free week's rental
of a house boat that is vexing me now!! : )
I have been unable to find any prices there though.
Will be intresting to see if the wave Locking Fees again this year.
(And raise registrations fees to compensate!: )
Did find what rthe cost of renting a houseboat for a week is though -
I would be ahead buying the one I'm looking at even if it dies after a
few weeks! WOW!
Thanks again

Are you serious with that question about hull type? And, are you sure we're
talking about the same lake? It's Onondaga Lake. What attracted you to this
lake?

Nah - I was being sarcastic.
The lake where I would commute to for work and ride the moped to the
office is the one In/next to Syracuse and I did see on some web page
that it listed Free Day Docking.
I can't typ or speel.
IF I werr to do this I would probably go a few miles up the Erie to
berth for the night most nights.
