I guess I should have mentioned, my boat is a 22 foot SeaRay, and I usually am the only one (with my wife, who can neither drive a boat, nor back a trailor up) and doing that by myself, (both launching, moving the truck, docking while I move the truck, then holding the boat while I go get the truck...can you see where this is going?) Makes the slip my solution. But I am realizing that where I keep my boat, like any marina, is pretty pricy for just a few months. Also, if I give my slip up this year, I may not be able to get one again (without a LONG waiting list). So that is what prompted this "survey," to see how others are going to handle it. Is it worth the gamble of loosing your place in the marina? Is it better to just wait until "company," comes to help launch it? We have been at the same marina for over twn years and hate to give up our spot...but business is not very good right now, and I know the marina (even though they had empty slips last year) probably won't lower their prices.
