How about putting a 220 on top so I don't have to trailer it anymore 😂😂😂
Let’s try it. I’m game! That would mean that you would have to take your boat out of your garage. I thought I read that you are trying to get on the water full time?
I have to air up the tires to get it under the garage door so nothing hits 😂😂😂
Always looking for slips. But not holding me breath on that one.
You sound like a pirate with “me breath”. 😂😂😂🏴‍☠️

It’s kinda nice not having to dig out under my shed door to get my boat in now too! I hear ya about looking for a slip. But then I tell myself that my boat still looks like new sitting in my shed.

Exactly
I would have to have a lift and cover and bring it home every few weeks to wash it. It would drive me nuts. It's so nice having it a few steps away all the time.

It is 4K.
