Hello and good morning.....from a new member located in New Smyrna Beach! [
]
Just registered this morning. I didn't realize how the process went. Registration only open at certain times to mitigate spammer attacks. I sent an email to the webmaster and he replied this morning that registration was open for today.
I've owned my Mako now for about 33 years. She's a '79 with an '89 150 Evinrude. Purchased her from a customer/friend of mine when I was living in Lehigh Acres (Ft. Myers area) back in the early 90's. I re-located to NSB in '95 and have been here ever since.
The closest boat ramp is only a 2 mile drive down the road. I live on the barrier island up toward the Coast Guard station so I drive south to the North Causeway, go over the North Bridge, and the public boat ramps are on the left-hand side about a mile down. Pretty easy access and very straight forward.
I keep my boat on my trailer on my front driveway. My trailer though has seen it's better days and has succumbed to rust on several components so I'm now in the process of a rebuild. I found a decent looking trailer on CL but after some thought, I came to the conclusion it would be more efficient (translation: easier logistically) to fix my trailer than to do a swap, so I will be posting in a different thread some trailer-related questions later.
For now just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. It's very nice forum - looking forward to participating!
Cheers,
Bazza [
