Elizabeth City area. Thanks for the kind words, I've had the boat a year or so, didnt run much until this past summer, been playing with engines. Im familiar with Gates, I use to have a trucking co and through there all the time. thats a sharp OL you have also, just saw a 37 OL at YPM and they really are built nice.

Sorry to take so long to provide some input. I also would think Chesapeake would be your best bet. Also, there are several places to boat, however some are divided by some natural barriers. Lots of places to put over if you trailer. The 2 places mentioned for dry storage is in Portsmouth and in Chesapeake. If you want to boat south on the ICW, you will have to go thru 1 lock system and wait for 2 bridges. This could take 1-2 hours. Personally, I would like to keep my options open and have a trailer. Too many places to go and see!
Oh yeah.....and some killer Poker Runs!

How does a galvanized trailer hold up in salt water? Found one right around the corner from my house.
