That's me, don't own a trailer and don't want to, most people who boat mostly at LOTO or keep their boats here all the time don't have trailers and the boats do just fine on the dock lifts.
My boat has been on my lift for 8 years and it works out great. |
Screw the groundhog!

Oh, man... that would make me nervous. http://i.huffpost.com/gen/243411/MID-WEST-SNOWSTORM.jpg |
If they put all the boats in storage that are at LOTO then there would be no room left in the town. It would be a town of pole barns!lol
When I lived at loto I didnt see snow. Here is something that I cant believe nobody has thought of though. Why not mount a heater or two up near the tops of the docks? I mean especiallly the resorts!? We can put fans..tvs..etc..why not a heater or thermal heat? It would only have to be used I am guessing once or twice a year at most but could save you thousands. It could easily be done.. I used to do electric there and wired up lands end and the boat docks. It wouldnt be very hard. http://www.warmzone.com/roof-ice-dam.asp |

Brian, feel free to run over and check on the PP if you want.
The wind was blowing HARD from west to the east, so to me it appears structures in the path, kept clear. BTW, would he happy to stop by! |
I'm just the opposite...I've always had a dually and my own trailer. Different strokes for different folks. My boat sits in a heated storage unit.

We can't raise two lifts at the same time if they are on the same circuit. |

Question-

From what I can see out the windows (our street is not plowed out yet), all the docks look fine. It appears the only areas (docks) that are having issues are in the protected coves.
