The plan is to launch April 27. Stay tuned. Some boats stored on the river side of the lower lot may launch Saturday/Sunday April 19-20. Next in line will be the smaller boats in the lower lot. There is a possibility that some may launch during the week in the late afternoon/early evening. The rest will launch April 27. We will be using our Travelift for the first time… no crane!
Make sure you are ready with batteries charged, drain plugs in, dock lines and fenders ready to deploy. Please avoid parking in the lower lot. We will need all the space for maneuvering the tractor/trailer and Travelift.
