Ya, you take some degree of risk with uShip, but that being said, I had my 24’ FW towed from Milton NH to Ft Myers Fl with no issues and it was at a very good price. Just be careful with your...

Perhaps not in your immediate search area, but I used Melvin Village Marine last season and they were fantastic for valet service. I hear they opened another facility closer to Moultonboro so should...

Can vouch for H&H. They repaired one of my stainless duo props two years ago after hitting a rock in Paugus Bay. Cost was reasonable and turn around quick. These are $600 props new and repair was...

Lots of boater familiar with the bay, canals and rivers seem to do okay dealing with the shallow waters. Like anything else, once you get the lay of things, it’s no big deal. Just takes a little...

Just beware that many if the bays down here in SWFL are very shallow. Estero Bay for example is pretty much a “puddle” in my opinion with the majority of the bay anywhere from 1-1/2 to 4ft deep. You...

Ambrose Cove- Melvin Village
