Haul / Storage Cost Gulf Coast?

Hi Gang,

New to the site, but not new to boats or boatbuilding. I hve a 80' x 18' aluminum yacht I need to haul out and store for some time (about 6 months) somewhere in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico area. I am trying to find out what rates people charge for haul out/launch and what it costs for dryland storage. Any numbers would help and locations too.

Thanks,

Jim

Haul - Storage Cost Gulf Coast

I am also a newbie to this site. I just had my boat hauled in SW Florida after a fairly comprehensive hunt in that area. The best place I found is Glades Boat yard. It's about 40 miles from Fort Myers up the Caloosahatchee River. $4.50 a foot, about half of what is charged in Ft. Myers. I can't recall the haul/launch fee but it's reasonable. They will pressure wash if you want. Storage only, no slips, but there is a DIY yard for $17/day. Great hurricane hole, very secure in the middle of nowhere where the thieves can't find it.
