What is a better route? I will be heading west on 94, then what? 90 or 294? I am thinking the skyway might be a little drier?

You will not avoid the slop. We got hit with almost 16 inches. I am minutes from there new location.

It is supposed to be 54 by the end of the week. Then it will be very messy!!

This was Saturday... I had to pull my new to me 33 threw the storm.

I found a semi truck wash in Wis that washed it all up for me once I was out of the snow.

Shouldn't there be sleds on that trailer?

Youll want to avoid downtown chicago at all costs, unless you are coming thru at 3am. I would take 94 to 80-94, and 80 west to 294 north. Going thru the city on 94 will pretty much suck. I promise !

$995, and then I would have to unwrap it to winterize.

+1 - Do you have to get it now?

Just ride that ***** up the lake; and pick the trailer up in the spring. I thought this website was for hardcore boaters. :D

I've seen more then $ 995 done in clear coat damage from not using the right tape when taping the front edge of the cover down. The right tape is $120 a roll.
