Re: First Boat, Am I getting a good deal?

Welcome Tyler,

Re: Slip from Hell...

Really doesn't seem that bad to me. Having to walk it out of the slip isn't always a bad thing, and it seems perfectly set up to do so. Plus it is easy to find your boat in a less than sober state:D

Re: Is this Legal?

Keep your slip and try it at your friends for a week and see what happens. Not the h2o po-po I would worry about, but your friends neighbors.
