[KACHINA KEN]

Heading to Lido to launch in just a couple hours, still a lil nervous since it's first time in the ocean but all the gear is rockin so I can just chill out I guess. I have digi and mini DV so I'll get image center topped up when I get back. Have fun at the river, I'll be gettin the salty cherry popped!

Where are you launching from and what are your plans. Trust me, you will love the big blue. Definitely worth the clean up when you are done. 1 hour worth of work for tons of fun!

Snorkling , Horseback riding, hiking and of course cocktails and partying!
I dont guess I'm getting any sleep tonight

[BADBLOWN572]

Yeah, probably no sleep for you tonight. Oh well it will all be worth it in the end. The snorkling over there is awesome! Been on many dive trips over there and all have been great. I have never actually been on the island though (kind of dissapointing). Oh well, one day I will make it over there. Have fun.

Ken - Does this place put boats in the water for the general public? I thought you had to have a dry dock there to get those services? How much did they charge you?

It's not that bad putting the trailer in the salt water. My last trailer was just a painted Extreme and it held up fairly well after two years of salt water boating. If you rinse the trailer off with fresh water right after launching, the salt water doesn't have too much time to do damage. My extreme was a tube trailer, so I would put the hose in the drain holes foe the tubes and fill them up with fresh water to rinse them out. Over time, you will get some rust spots no matter what you do, but that's part of the tradeoff for boating in the ocean...

Kev, I think Cigarette1 already answered that on another thread. :)

Hold your horses .... Unless you signup for dry storage at the Lido Dryslip, I don't think they will touch your boat. Cost is roughly $18/ft on an annual contract and about $21/ft monthly. Once your boat resides at the dryslip, there is no charge for launches(charge for trailer load/unload). There's about an 80 boat waiting list.
