Managed to get the boat in for the season after some repairs to the trailer.

Andy, looks great! Good luck with her.
BTW, did you use the Super Lube for the steering,
How did it work out for you?

Congrats Andy.  Looks like you are one of the first of the season.  That's an interesting looking mooring system you have there.

Bimini top's still there. :cheers:

Good thing you're piloting that sport version. Makes it real EZ to negotiate those tight slips. :wink:

Good luck.

Bryan--I did use the Super Lube, I used some brakelean and got all of the other grease off and then just put a little of the Super Lube on. It steers nice and smooth now I'll let you know as time goes yy but I think everything will be good.
CLM65- Those Frog hooks save a lot of space no pilings to take up room and the boats go up and down with the tide no side to side sway. Those rub rails worked out perfect. I still have the leftover here in a box waiting for that other guy from PA to send me his mailing addy.
Bob the spot where I am take up to about 25' the larger boats go on the sides and the really big one out front and over on the left and right. I'll post when all the boats are in.

Good glad the hear.
That grease works really well and has quite a few applications.
