Lets see your slip/dock. I know in my marina, there are a few with deck build outs, but they are pretty tame compared to some. Here are a couple pics of my slip, shortly after we moved into our newer/larger slip. Not much right now...we plan to add a few cabinets/bar.

We lucked out this year. We had a standard boat dock with no extra space, but my boat decided to untie itself, and float by 20 other boats, ultimately parking in a decked space that became un-rented for the first time in 23 years. The owner of the marina thought it would be a good fit for us, and viola, a nice decked-dock for us!!     And for those who have the time...This is a video I took of the dock last week. It shows that we are having fun making it 'ours.' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5NhLSURUtA |

Here is ours. We (me and two of our daughters) have been living up here full-time since the end of May.  My wife and our other two little-ones come up and have dinner every night. It is a matter of time before they run us off. Oh well, vacation is coming up in another week.

  I WISH!! That was at our local casino, huge marina but unfortunetly or should I say fortunetly empty. Too bad I didn't have my camera gear with me caus that would have been some epic pics. Ours look more like this. Private marina with 80 guests but everything is getting old. I won't complain cause we were lucky to find a spot last minute. every other marina around has a waiting list of 2-3 years.

Either everyone is an expert boater or there is never any wind. Needless to say, I bet everyone there carries insurance. Very nice though and I wish our marina allowed gas grills on our docks. |

Well, I am blessed with the luck of the wind most of the time, but there have been a few pucker moments. I think the two best features I have are duo-prop and cone clutch. I find that if I do frequent shift between reverse and neutral, I keep my speed low enough to not cause any issue with my backing up. When I tried to leave it in gear and steer, it got too damn fast with the duo-prop (probably the only negative thing I have to say about having a duo-prop system). The other boats? Well, from what I've seen so far, they leave them in the slip, but it is early in the season here in New Hampshire. Hopefully, they will get out and use them. |

I added some standard rope lights to each dock finger yesterday. These are not near as bright as I hoped. I knew they wouldnt be as good as the LED versions but they were super cheap so I took a chance.
