Cripse...everybody in this hobby is a wise a$$...
The reason the dock does not reach shore is that on August 2 it was about 2 feet onshore beyond the waterline. We then had some really bad Thunderstorms (which were training) several times on several days. On Aug 10 the lake was up over 4 feet from the August 2nd date ( a foot higher than in the picture). The next day the dock and the boat floated off into the lake as the height pulled out the 8 foot poles driven into the ground.
The boat is now moored on the lake and you have to swim to get to it.
Missing from the picture is the two Sit down PWC's which were put on their trailer and removed as the water rose.
I find the use of this 24 foot trailer very convenient to sand blasting and painting. It is the right hight for using my pot-blaster, I can quickly move the contents around and indoors if rain is coming, and it is the right height to paint on.
If not used for "body work" it would just sit unused until October when the Boat is pulled for the winter.
The trailer scheme is now a combination of rust color, maroon primer, some white, lots of OD (319,33070,& 23070) POR black, and some silver.
And to answer your question...Yes I am out of money!
And it is my pleasure to be the source of entertainment to you all!!!
