Hi Steve, I'm in Penobscott Bay, Maine and only a few places here will haul cats(18' 3"beam). It just kills me to have the boat at -20+ degrees covered in feet of snow. It can't be good--- I know it doesn't do me much good. I'm looking at all options at this point. Constitution Marina in Boston just advertised at $40/ft for the winter season. Here (Journey's End Marina, Rockland it is $62/ ft haul, store and launch. Of course I expect to call and find that in Boston it is a monthly rate which would be too rich for my blood. Bob PDQ 36 Peace

They've got a zillion slips, and if you're a cat you'd probably want an "end" slip due to your beam. But they've got a great bubbling system which keeps the slips ice-free during the winter. When I wet-store (usually 3 out of every 4 years) I store there. It's called West Shore Marina. If you want specifics email me off list and I'll give you all the info. I'll probably be in there this coming winter.
