I would kill to have a cozy place to keep the boat and be able to tinker at will. I need about a 40x60, but the neighborhood assn would most likely not approve. Kitty's brother in law had a great shop next to his house for that kind of thing but he decided to knock off the cover to his underground propane with a tractor and BOOM!, no more barn......

It has been nice to have this winter, especially since I bought the boat so late, though it's not been without it's price. Started out as a joint venture, which was fairly reasonable, and quickly became dis-jointed. In that the building owner is a long time friend I ended up doing a little more than I had planed on, kinda became double-jointed, so to speak, he's been real good about the whole deal. Oh well, such is life, sometimes you just gotta do what you know is right. I could have spent the money on a trip south, or a cruise, but in reality have more fun fussing with the boat.

speaking of enjoyment...
I am enjoying perusing the new full-page of legal-eze attached to this year's dockage bill...
a couple of those articles are near and dear to me as you know
though I find the pre-emptively absolving yourself from bringing any suit of any kind over any result of using the premises regardless of conditions with a simple non-witnessed John Hancock through the mail, to be...well...
entertaining.
I expected this long ago, but how much "water" does it really hold to protect our friend?

However, work put an end to that. Our refueling outages are staggered for the two units, each unit is on a two-year refueling frequency. So, every year one or the other is down in March. Every year my March is spent getting reaquainted with the reactor vessel up close and personal. Pretty much wiped out my spring riding.
Saves money for boating though.
