Good luck to you Jack. I take it you're on Hopatcong? I think that slip'll
accomodate most adequate bass boats in the 19' range. Just make sure you
use bumpers of some sort & as many tie-downs from all angles as you can.
Oh, and cover that boat or it'll turn white from bird poop.

Good Luck!

Good one Warren. You are probably right. It's just that the slips are
at a premium here, New Jersey just has too damn many people. There's
like one slip left, 21' X 8', so I guess I have to accomodate that
size. I sold my bass boat last Fall and am in the market for another
and I don't feel like lugging it around any more. Wow, way too much
information here. Thanks for the response.

Gotta tell ya - that's the first time I ever heard of someone buying a
boat
based on the size of a rented slip! Usually it's the other way around.

Kinda like marrying a big, fat woman just because you have a king-sized
bed,
isn't it?

Question for the group please: I have leased a boat slip in New
Jersey's largest lake, size is 21' X 8'. I have never used one before.
What is the ideal width of the boat (I don't have that yet) that I
need to fit into the slip space and still have comfortable room for
folks to get in and out of the boat and of course, to protect the boat
properly. And, secondly, what is the best way to secure the boat. The
slip has no protective tires and I'm wondering what kind of lines to
use and how many. Thanks. Jack.
