    Boat slip docking tips?

    So it looks like we are going to buy a slip for a year to save up for a truck. Any tips or good threads to go through? I did a search and didn't really come up with anything. I've never docked long term, so I'm pretty new to the whole concept. Our boat is a 19.5' Glastron I/O. The lake is...

    Unmotivated seller or really busy?

    Found THE boat - been in contact with the seller a few times. Trying to get everything lined out so I can pick up the boat, and either get told, "I'll call you back later" or just goes to voicemail. Sorry - just venting a bit. If you have a boat for sale, then why ignore me? :confused:
