Figured no point in starting a March thread, just jump into April. Supposed to have the dealer summarize the boat this week. Going to get the lift electrical wired up in the next couple weeks. That's a new lift just put in mid-February. And, the garage coming along nicely. One 12' door and one 13' door. 40' deep x 30' wide with a 3 bedroom apartment up top. Hopefully will be done by beginning of June.

Going to be a great summer! Dock needed some work, so we decided to add a couple extra feet.
Also first day out March 30! Let's go! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...50f27e847e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a5d68d876a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d9320da4f3.jpg

How was the water @knoxmojo? Dock addition is lookin good,ready to get mine in the water!
My knee still isn't up to the task, so I just enjoyed the day and some cold snacks. Water temp was low to mid 60s.Quote:

MEGA!
I too have been busy building all fall and up until now. 30x 50 shop for me and the conversion of our attached garage into a hair salon for the wife. So glad I have a place to get my boat out of the weather and keep it nice and dry. My garage is almost complete, next weeks projects include sealing the floors, and stone masons finishing the front of my building. Put vinyl shakes on it this week, the million trips up and downcthe ladder damn near killed my legs.https://i.ibb.co/P1jhpdy/20230328-165421.jpg

Stone masons finally finished the front of our house too, wife is happy to have her salon finished and working, its nice for her to have place thats all her own and her clients have been nuts over it. https://i.ibb.co/z6MNhN0/20230329-201111.jpg
As far as the boat goes, it sucks that my tower is inches from clearing door and I have to lower it my old garage had and 18 ft door and I had no worries of hitting tower. These doors are 12w x 10 h another 2 inches qould have gotten me in.
2" ? Man! That's a bummer. And that's my sort of luck. Let some air out of your tires! Ha! Ha!

Yeah 2 inches sucks but its still better than my boat sitting outside.
Just remove the light on top of the tower.
Unless you boat at night it isn't required.
You should make a little notch in the building at the top of the door for the light to go through! LOL! Really, you are right. It beats being in the rain/sun year round for sure! Lowering your tower is a minor deal.

Yeah, but it's getting better by the day. Have an appointment to get an Ossur CTI custom for my right knee next week. Going to wait to ride when it comes in.Quote:

Bulkhead is done and started driving piles for the boathouse / dock. Hoping to be up and running towards the end of April!

So are you putting a house over it like the one in the background?

Lowered the boat into the water for the first time this year. She cranked right up. Gonna wait a day or two till the water clears up a bit from all this rain, then give her a run. In the mean, gotta give it a good wipedown. Covers don't do much to stop pollen. We also traded in our 2006 vx cruisers for a pair of 2022 vx limited. Wife had to have something that matched the boat! LOL! Got to admit they do. Right down to the pecan colored seats.

Just doing a gabled roof over the lift and boat for now. That full boathouse setup across the way is pretty nice though...Quote:

we’ll see how this does.
$5400 total for the upgrade.
Certainly will make it easier to sell when that time does come lol

Interested in your feedback on the GSA. I have been looking for 2 seasons now. I have Flow 1.0 (manual horizontal tabs) and I would like to not have to list my boat when surfing.Quote:

Other than I can already tell you, someone is definitely going to scrape their leg getting into the boat from the platform.
I will have to come up with something to remind people not to get up from the sides.
Yours may not be an issue depending on platform and hull.

My one comment from installing tabs on my previous Supra and playing around with them, you do not need that much ‘down-tab’ when making the wave.
Too much will cause the transom to lift and reduce the affect on the wave. Once you play around with them, you will find the sweet-spot.
Mine also needed a lot a back-end weight to get a clean wave.
