We moved slips last year and now we only have about 12" clearance on either side. We back into our own well with a fingerdock on both sides, and after one full season I never really got into trouble with it. But I also know that a strong crosswind will essentially make this an effort in futility as the wind will take my bow as soon as I start backing in. Twice this season we had to just sell out and bow-in until the wind settled, but then we can barely get off the boat, lol.
So bowthrusters: who's done it aftermarket? Any '97-'99 400DA's? What's the ballpark installed cost? How much will it improve the marketability and/or resale value on the used market? Does anyone make one that's quiet enough to not wake the dead? Any other comments for the good of the forum?
