seasonal wet storage

[fishtrap]

I am planning to sail my 40' motor sailor south via the ICW early this fall and wet store it until after the xmas/new year holidays. I'll pick up the boat early 2016 and spend several months cruising then return it to wet storage for the next summer. I'm looking for a safe, affordable marina or boatyard, preferably DIY, in north Florida or Georgia in order to keep insurance premiums down. The boat draws 5.5' and has a mast hight of 50'. Does anyone have any recommendations for a no frills yard or marina I might contact?

Look for dry storage, it eliminates nearly all the problems and worries.

Best place for wet storage is Brunswick Landing marina in GA.

Thank you Vasco, that was the kind of advice I was hoping to get. I'll give them a call. Any other suggestions from anyone for marinas or yards will be greatly appreciated.

I second Brunswick Landing. Well protected and there are lots of other boats there doing the same thing. Prices aren't as bad as Florida too.
