1. 4700.00 for drive to 40' slip, includes pump outs,parking,pool, wifi,water,power,haulout, bottom wash,blocking and outside winter storage in the yard...runs from May to May.
2. 700 to winterize two inboard engines.
3. 34.00 a foot for shrink LOA.....if used
4. Indoor heated storage....8.75 a square ft....( loa+1 ) x (beam+1)..so 38x14=532 x 8.75= 4655.00....if used
5. Fuel 1.44 a litre....there are 3.78L in US gallon.
Remember to add 13% to all the above for tax except for the fuel.
We are quite happy where we are now, great place , nice people and great boating.

Re: 2018 What Have You Spent On Your Boat Year To Date
In 2017 I moved to Gibraltar Boat Yard. Now my boat is only 9 miles away. Much better for me but the cost for my summer dockage rose to $1675 the past two seasons. Still not a bad price when compared to other locations.

Somewhat interesting when you get to compare services, granted maybe not all apples to apples but close enough for discussion.

Cooler wrote:Source of the post Yeah, what Rick said. That slip rate is not bad when you consider the lift, winter storage, wash. Unless I did the math wrong, and I probably did, you are right in our ballpark. 40 ft slips at my marina are 2400USD, May 15 to October 15 only. ( 3230 CAD ) Your fuel conversion is 3.75USD a gallon, which is very typical for most marina's. My marina is the lowest anywhere, mainly because they need transient boaters to cruise in for local entertainment economy. I drive 58 miles to the marina, but gas in car is cheap by comparison. Normal week is 5 days at boat, 2 days at home. Bud, you're doing better than you think. Don't worry, be happy. er.
The one thing that is not cheap at my marina is fuel. Gasoline all season long was $4.59 per gallon. Fortunately there are a couple of boat clubs nearby where gas is a bit cheaper so I usually buy there.
