15 minutes away on trailers. Easy to keep clean after use.

If I had to drive 100's of miles to use my boat I would move or find another hobby.

In the winter we use it every sat or Sunday local and the Keys. Having it at LOTO in the summer is great. We fly out on Thursday afternoon. Boat is waiting for us in the water at PBC. Take it to our dock and boat all day Fri-Sun. Leave at PBC in the water on Sun eve and fly home Monday am. PBC handles everything and keeps it in amazing condition. We get to have a mini vacation 1-2x a month.

Where do you fly in and out of? Somewhere closer than KC or STL?

Its 1.5hrs to drive to Cumberland (home lake) or 1.5hrs to fly into Brumley. Given the prep time that it takes most to clean/wash, fill with gas, trailer, launch, park etc... I would bet that I'm on the water in comparable time as most given the fact that PBC handles all this. Not to mention I gain an hour in route...

SWA 2:45 NS to STL.
With the drive I'm usually on the water about 4-5pm If we catch the lunch flight

I bought an insulated 40'x50' building on 2 acres for next to nothing 5 yrs ago. It's 35 mins away from my house, but is 5 mins away from Lake Michigan in. Prior I paid for a 12'x50' indoor stall that was 45 mins from Lake Michigan.
