Thanks everyone for the replies. Just waiting to see what happens with all of the stay at home stuff. If goes to far into season I’ll hold off till next year, it’s pretty spendy. But it’s new dock with shore power on the river(fresh water) in an area where wake is controlled for several hundred yards because of proximity of the main dam. so rare chance of waves hitting. Will have some constant current but overall pretty calm area. I’ll likely do since it’s only 15-20 minutes from home to the dock and with constant power not too worried about batteries being drained by bilge etc.
I wouldn’t moor it unless you have a wide slip and can use whips, or even better like I’ve done the last two years.. I’m in 24” of water end of the summer with water levels dropping, and on the east side of the dock so incoming weather pulls the boat off the dock most of the time.
Finally in, Rivers super low with the dam still open for a couple more weeks. New bilge and hose and tested out few times works great. Thanks for the help guys. View attachment 47971
Have you had any issues sucking up anything in the 24” of water? I am pretty much the same boat at the end of summer and just switch from a V-drive to a SP210 to hopefully extend my boating season. Thanks!
