For these larger-type boats, we can launch them and put them into the assigned slips. We'll do whatever the owner wants.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.

The largest boat we've stored is a 54-foot one that's been kept on the water. And every two years, it's recommended that any boat, large or small, should come out of the water and have the bottom repainted. We can do maintenance on the underwater gear of the boat at that time, too.

We want to make sure everything is workable before it goes back to the owner.
