Ah, I should have thought of the day trippers. I could see gas prices holding them back depending on the distance they need to travel if it came down to a day of boating or a week of grocerys. Our families "big boat" has been in storage now for two years in Moultonborough. The dock never even went in the water last year, but maybe this year the dock and boat will go in. It's not because of gas prices, it's just taking the time for my family to get up there and do it, since my Gma can't do it herself. I'd love to tow my boat up there from here, but that dang required safety certificate is in the way. No such thing required here
