Done!!!  Polished, waxed, slid the boat off the rollers a bit and finished up the bottom paint.  Gonna tow her back tomorrow and try and do a quick shakedown with the Mrs.  Only think that sucks is my marina is now saying no go for the slip until April 1st.  3 weeks ago they said whenever I want   5hrug

Said even though my slip is ready, others are not.  He said he doesn't want his other customers getting upset that boats are in the water and their slip isn't ready.  I can live with it......I guess/

I'm sure once the other docks are in then it will be fine t^

Some has to do with INS. and some don't need boats around when adding a dock next to yours--again INS.

Swing a floating dock and it hits your boat--Who pays??

Yeah, my only beef with that is there's already a couple guys in the water.  They let rack storage customers who want to go out early stay in slips until the rack service starts.  The finger docks they need to put in are nowhere near my boat.  If push came to shove I don't think he'd mind if I really pressed, just not sure I want to yet.  I was gonna use the low tide excuse since the ramp is only useful at high tide, but there will be plenty of water all evening lol.

Welp, scratch tonight.  My insurance lapsed last week so it doesn't pick up until midnight tonight.  Not gonna tow and drive without insurance.  On the flip side, I think a nice day off from work on Thursday might be in order  >:D
