I can totally relate to this as I have been managing my 84 yr old moms life for the past 15 yrs. She has dementia. I have a brother who won't help at all. I am still working full time. There are many emotional stages to all of this caregiving business. You go from disbelief to analyzing...
Glad you found an alternative procedure that you felt more comfortable with. You really do have to be your own healthcare advocate and do your homework. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Marinas supposed to launch this week! Plan on driving up Friday night to stay the weekend. Currently 45 in New Buffalo, but supposed to be up to 70 by Saturday. We are looking forward to getting her stocked and set up for the summer :cool:
Congrats on the new boat! Nice covered slip to keep the sun from beating up your upholstery. You'll have to post interior pics once you get her settled.
We bought our 2006 320 dancer last Fall and we are trying to make some upgrades to the boat to give her a facelift. The anchor is bent. Original owners had her in a shallow lake much too small for her. Probably caught the anchor under a tree or something. It still works but it just adds to...
I think that is Henry from Mariteak that posted. They made the steps and table for our boat last Fall. Prepare to lay down some $$$ but they make beautiful things.

I hated both original faucets on our 2006 dancer and replaced them when we first bought the boat last fall. We do not use our boat for showering. We use the shower house at the marina, so we chose not to put a hand sprayer back in the head. I don't have links, but I have pics. I remember...
That is a good looking boat. Great space in the cockpit... At that age she will be a project for sure, but hopefully a labor of love. Post pics and info as you update.
I don't know if that is your slip in the pic or the slip of the previous owner, but make sure you have arrangements for where you're going to slip and store her. Some places have a waiting lists for both. If you notice, everyone has made a comment about docking your boat....that's because it...
Thank you for the welcome! I’ve looked on the site for several years for information and entertainment. I didn’t create an account until we bought the 320 last fall. I agree about the waxing. I think if you own a boat with a colored hull, you have to be pro wax on a yearly basis. Our 240 had a...
NO, you are not being an ass. You were sharing your good fortune and they took advantage and expected you to foot the whole bill. That would offend most folks. The way I see it you've got two options... 1) know that you are giving extended family a grandiose vacation that they could not have...
