 The summer season is winding down with us here and as the sun shines hotter everyday we must take advantage of the summer time to enjoy nature at its finest. So hurry while the kids are still out of school and take them out for that houseboat trip they've been dying to take.

Houseboat season is still in full swing and we are still here for all your houseboat transportation needs. Be it short or long haul's we're here for the job and promise to do it to the highest standards!

Still accidents and mishaps do happen and repairs may need to be made to your vessel. A good trick for saving money with a houseboat is to call a few of your boating neighbor and get together a date when multiple boats can be pulled out and serviced. Pricing can be split between all the boats resulting in savings in the hundreds of dollars.  The savings alone can cover the costs of your yearly maintenance.      

Another way of saving money is a maintenance log. A maintenance log is a spread sheet with different boat components listed. You check off the components you inspect and make notes on any items that may be of concern to you. By doing these inspections before the boat is used, you can track issues on your vessel before they become major problems.  Logs also allow you to communicate problems to your mechanic or shop.  A good mechanic can review a log and see inconsistencies that may indicate a larger problem.
We offer log sheets you can print out and free consultation on how to use them. Click Here.
