I appreciate your consideration but...........my lake cabin is a short walk from our docks. Its a neighborhood with neighborhood docks. It would be hard to justify getting a slip in another dock. My place is down off of JJ, so Gage's Marina is close. If I was to get another slip, might as well be a 40' over there right?

Is the slip really 10' or are they just rounding up from 9'6" wide slip?

I was walking thru our marina this summer and there was a crusier that was in a slip where there was 1" on one side, with the other side up against the dock's pole pad. I had to walk back & forth to verify if I was seeing that right. I do not have a clue how they got it in or out without tearing something up.

Think of all the money you would save on bumbers and bowlines.
