Hi...just recently got a 27' boat and was wondering what a "fair" price is for
winter storage?

Thanks!

That is way to open ended to answer....

Covered?
Indoor?
Concrete floor?
Heated?
Winter Access?
Secure?
Private bay?

Yeah, answer all 'bomar's' questions. If you're just looking to leave it on a
trailer in a marina with lot's of room, you might get by with $50-$100 bucks a
month.

If you want it on a rack in a marina that's busy, $300-$400 a month might be
more like it.

If you're talking the Annapolis area, it's big bucks compared to a place like
Breezy Point.

John, thanks for your honest answer without the sarcasm. I appreciate it.

I'm a new boater that thought I would ask people that know. I read this group
often but never post. I think I know why.

Again, thanks a lot. Take care.

You post this acerbic response to our posts, but fail to see the fact that
you didn't ever really give enough info (which was asked for at the onset)
to really answer your question.
The Internet is a big world, and few of us are mind readers....so how in the
hell were we supposed to guess what it was you were thinking about when you
made the initial post?

You expected someone posting as "nut4nascar" to be even slightly bright?

When I bought my boat, I went to a marina and asked them how much they charged
to store a boat. They then proceeded to ask my questions. Eventually they got
enough information from me to give me a reasonable answer. At no time did they
question my intelligence for not giving them all the facts up front.

Nut4nascar, if you're still reading this thread, bomar wasn't, in my opinion,
trying to be a smart ass. He couldn't give a very decent answer without more
info. I gave a pretty general answer, with no specifics. If you were to ask the
price to store a 27' boat on a rack, covered, in Harbor Cove Marina in Deale,
MD, I could give a much better answer. But even then, it would be based on
'year-around' storage. I pay $1920 per year for a 21'er in a boatel. A 27'er in
the same boatel would cost $2640 per year.

You would not be able to get only winter storage in that marina because it is
full.

BB's comments were uncalled for, but that's BB.

My marina charges $2.60 a s.f. for winter storage...includes hoisting,
shoring and spring launch.....it's sister marina that is a bit mroe remote
charges $1.60 s.f both in the Lake St. Clair area in Mich.

Please make at least a superficial attempt at intellectual honesty. If
you had written a letter to the Marina to inquire about how much they
would charge to store your boat, you would have included as much
information as you could, to avoid the obvious extra step of them
writing you back and asking for basic information needed to answer the
question. If you wrote a letter to a Marina and asked how much they
charged to store a boat, and didn't include any additional
information, they would be justified in assuming you are an idiot.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were also a nut for NASCAR.

The last few years, Short's Marine in Delaware has offered that for $50 for the
whole winter.
