We secured a slip at the Mckinkey Marina for July 14-16 to watch the Milwaukee air show. The whole boating experience is new to us as we have only had our 215 express cruiser for 11 months. I have a few questions below, and I am also open to any tips or tricks from the veterans:
1. The boat is not bottom painted and is always trailered. The previous owner beached the boat quite a bit, as such there is a spot on the keel that the gel coat is worn. Do I need to worry about growth or blisters on the hull during this short weekend in the water?
2. I am planning on waxing the hull over the fourth so I am hoping that will lessen the effects of staying in the water
3. I don't want to be "that guy" at the marina. We are quiet people, any tips on how to fit in?
4. I know we have a smaller boat, I am hoping we are not laughed off the dock with the larger cruisers surrounding us.
Thank you in advance,
Ryan
For number 4. See picture. Yes. I am the 260 DA with Two 42 ACs to my port. Talk about size envy. Lol
