No ****. How do those get installed? By a company that has to bring them in on a boat or what?

In Hammond we have assembled them in the parking lot on dollies and roll them down the ramp and pull them over to the slip with a couple dingys

In Chicago not sure how they are going to do it.
Probably need a Union Carpenter to assemble it, them a union crane operator to maneuver it to the water. then a certified captain to tow it to the dock, Then a Union Carpenter to bolt it to the dock. Then a Union Electrician to plug it in. kind of like McCormick place

Fox Hunter sold his lift to someone in Diversey Harbor. So I guess it's true

Just applied for a slip at 31st. Assuming I'll get one since they were only at 50% last year?

No probs here in peoria. Got a covered slip and club membership at Ivy club for $2k. Now I can afford to drive the boat to Chicago a couple times this summer.

Hamms Marina in chillicothe would probably be nearly free for a covered slip. I heard he is lax about charging. Makes enough money playing with barges I geuss. Maybe next year, but it's out of the way.

Hamm's is a sh!thole, though. How is Ivy? Thought you had to get referred to get in there. Boat looks good there sitting at the docks by Joe's.
