2 years after getting our first boat, we get our first lake house, very, very fortunate us. It's on Lewis Smith Lake in Crane Hill Alabama. It's a floating dock and has about 12 electrical outlets, fluorescent lighting, a swim platform, 3 jet ski ports and 2 slips, one with a 6600 Hydrohoist lift, perfect for my Mojo, and a shorter slip for my wife's 20 foot pontoon boat, where yellow food and red drinks are allowed. I had a guy from the local Hydrohoist dealer look at the lift, without my boat being there, and he said it should be fine with the bunks set where they are. I'll post some pictures along with some of the house because I know the rule.
Any way I was looking for any ideas that y'all are using/doing on your dock or any dos and don't about lake house life:
- Don't pull into the dock with the boat tunes cranked.
- Do invite the widower over from next store who has no boat to stay on her good side.
- Do you keep a net on the dock to fish out debris?
- Has any one put on led strip lights?
- Motion lights?
- Regarding the lift, is it best to be either 100% up or 100% down and not in between?
