On the 'Hard'

[Gav]

Jon/Tony/matt...............Whats the costs for keeping a 21' boat at Drivers wharf? And how much is a lift each time? Is there a slip near by?

[Jon Fuller]

it's about a fiver a foot/month, so just over 100 quid a month for a 21

thats like £1700 a year for yours then

[Jon Fuller]

true, but I don't have to buy new engines every couple of months

[Burty]

nor me cus i aint been able to use it for 2months and the way its going wont be using it for at least another 2

[Burty]

so on a serious note is that about the going rate or is that quite cheap? does that include craneage?

[Jon Fuller]

thats pretty cheap

[Jon Fuller]

and doesn't include launches/recoveries.

but it isn't the most glamorous yard around, you pays ya money, you takes ya choice.

wheres the nearest slip to drivers?

[Jon Fuller]

bout half a mile, it's a public jobbie

[glen76]

for my boat it was only another £40 or £50 a month to keep it hythe marina i think, once the vat was added on, then 35 odd quid each time i wanna get lifted in thats £170 this month in lift fees (aint it plus vat too) soz but i think thats alot of money

does that mean... shit, full of wankers in lowered escourt Cabrios, 3hrs of tide and lots of wheels spinning up a seaweed covered ramp?

[Jon Fuller]

Yup, you'll fit in just fine!

[Jon Fuller]

you and truck could do syncronised launching there!

[Captain Chaos]

Thats fine with me!.......... However he'll be gettin the raw deal. I anticipate getting his gleam-machine onto his wheels will be a damn site easier than getting the 'tank' back onto 'wonkotrailer' !!!

he not been out in it yet?

I'm only thinking into the future anyhow
