I just closed out my slip rental at the dock. I was expecting some $200 ish. No water no elec. it was $435! $67/day rent $5/day tax

Closed my slip too total $435.36. I am ready for tomorrow morning first group @ whatever time start.

Did you tell them you were quoted $50 a day for slips?

 

[Julian]

I dont want to slow anyone down.. @AndyD is taking my family.. I am going to lighten the load as much as i can. With tabs I should be able to get on plane... I hope. If not i have the gold membership with towboat us...

Let me know if you want us to take anything.

@Sbrown you are welcome to cross with us.

No, I did not. I forgot about it.

It was 4 women on the boat and myself and no one ever even said slow down I was just running for efficiency probably could have went a bit faster. For those using the new app cpbroam here is the deal I forgot to set mine up before leaving I had someone do it on the boat as we arrived. I did not have my svrs numbers readily available so we skipped that part and that was a mistake. We were selected for a video chat the agent said if I had put my svrs number in he would not have had to video chat he would have been able to just clear us so if you have an svrs number make sure you enter it in the app if you do not he said they are pretty much required to video chat you.

What’s is an svrs number?

 

[AbuAyd]

July crew: You may want to share slips. They should fit a pair of 21’s. Not sure a pair of 24’s will fit. I’m sure its documented somewhere
@Bruce ?

I am willing to split it if that is possible. I have a 21.

 

[jayasaki138]

bronze10 is down to one engine.. looks like a stuck injector. I have trim tabs.. it will just be me on the boat.. with tabs i am hoping to make plane.

My boat just me and my friend, Dianna, if you need lighten your load let me know
