New lift and new slip

[jmstige]

After 2 years of renting a 6k lb lift from the marina (for $1900 a year), I finally found one for sale and pulled the trigger...It was installed in the boat house next to ours, so we just moved to it. The new slip has quite a bit more deck space, so the wife put me to work. We had some patio furniture in the back that wasn't getting used, so we moved it all down there. Turned out looking pretty nice.

Here's a pic of the fridge/ice/microwave/toaster oven...

Ready for summer and ready to not eat at the overpriced restaurants on the lake!

pretty sweet! A tip, you might want to get some stainless steel cable and tie those chairs and tables down. Wind plays havoc on them, and nice stuff on a dock has a tendency to get redustributed to passers by. Just a thought.

Thanks Tequila, I've seen first hand the effects of wind out there. You basically have to account for 60-70 mph wind and you will be OK...we can snug things down pretty slick when we leave for the day. Also - i'm down in the land of 30+ foot cruisers and my stuff is definitly not the nicest out there. There's some pretty elaborate setups on that dock.

My favorite part is the rope lighting

Awesome setup

[jmstige]

Thanks...The darn rope lighting was the biggest whip...I'm glad the fingers are marked now because it was scary dark before

[TeamAllen]

Killer setup! Great Job!

Looks great. Enjoy

I hate you!!!! j/k

Nice looking setup. Having a romantic dinner by the boat would be interesting.

Congrats and nice setup

That is one hell of a sexy setup.

Very Nice. I can't quite figure where your slip is at in those pictures. My buddy has a black supra on a slip out there as well and we spend a lot of time on it. Its actually located right where I saw you on Sunday. Right in front of the Stewarts Creek point. By the way we finally have some nice weather! This crazy weather we have had the last few months were getting old!

[Matt Garcia]

By the way, would you mind PMing me what you spend on that slip? For example is the lift and the slip a separate fee? The wife wants one but I haven't decided if the cost is worth it.

Very nice setup! I wish my local lake had that kind of stuff (just not big enough).
