Yeah last year you could've tied off to the wall. I swam over to the wall and it was pretty much shoulder deep.

I'm thinking of adding a bow thruster on my 380. Have any of you Peeps had this done and who did you use?

Seems like Florida Bow Thruster is the popular choice at Macray. Seen a few done over the years
Florida bow thruster just quoted me $13,600.00 at my yard... this is when I got delusional and asked for both the thruster and hyd lift...it was $35k

Holy..
Ya the problem was I had permission for $20k for the lift...I just asked what would be the price for the thruster at the same time. $49k was a real let down

I had one tech talking to me about thrusters a few weeks ago and said "once you're spending the cash for a bow thruster and we're already in there, you may as well just spend another $6k and add a stern thruster too." I'm not trying to spend your money but something to think about.

Heard Sassy is opening on the weekends starting this coming weekend. Sometimes its the small things, especially when were getting 10" of snow tonight, that keep me motivated. That and the new canvas and electronics that got installed over the last month. Not its my turn to go start my own winter projects... Can't wait for summer.
I don’t know Sassy ?
