Not quite what I am looking for. I want to find a place, not necessarily on the water, where the boat and trailer can be stored indoors. It would also be great if they could provide launch/haul-out service and winterization.
We are thinking about storing our boat in the upstate NY area during the off season. I want to find a place where it can be stored inside, on the trailer. We usually boat in the Kingston, Thousand Islands, Rideau Canal area. I want to be able to use the boat for about 4-6 weeks every summer...
Chuck: Thought I saw Wellesley Island. Must have been a prior year, like 2001 or something. I'm always a little behind the times. Maybe I got it from a different website like theboaters.com. Are there several aquapoloozas around the country?

I have a 2000 F250 V-10 that I use to pull my 270 to Canada and back. The trip is 2400 miles R/T. The 270 that I have is really a 290 in sheeps clothing (ie:LOA of 30'6"). Truck doesn't break a sweat pulling the load. I think it is rated to pulled 18 or 19,000 pounds, have to look at manual to...
You need to go each states website and get information on oversize loads. Every state is different with their permitting process and fees. Tennessee is probably the easiest and cheapest for a recreational boater.
