Hi guys,
I recently bought a 14ft v-hull. We decided to rent a wet slip in a state park lake here in Pennsylvania for convenience. Before this boat, I had a 14ft canoe with a 8hp motor so I'm not necessarily new to the water but this 'real' boat is a whole new experience. Its a little overwhelming starting out in a marina with over 600 boats. Its not in the water yet (waiting for the automatic bilge.)
I am having difficulty finding a cover that doesn't rely on a trailer to tie onto. Any suggestions?
How many lines should I use to dock on cleats? Its 2 boats per slip.
What do you do about charging the battery?
Is there anything else I need to prepare before putting it in?
Lastly, are there any rules/ettiquitte I should know about marinas?
Thank you for the help!
