Yeah thats what I was concerned about. I have a 27ft boat, but with my longbed superduty, the whole thing is about 60ft long. What about weekdays?

I normally only go past on the weekends, so I am no good on that question.

There is a lot of parking and you should be fine on most weekdays but it is in season. It is a rare day when during the week you cannot get a spot. Normally with a trailer for 27' boat you would be fine but the length of your truck may be a problem. I don't imagine you want to unhitch the trailer for one parking spot and truck in another. You may have to get a bit creative on how you park. With my Nor Tech I just get launched and the truck and trailer leaves. They will ticket you if you park on the grass shoulder as was done in the past.
