He drives an Acura MDX (the SUV). Â I assume it can tow a boat, at least short distances.  |
Very unlikely that storage would have extra trailers to use.
He'll have to check his owners manual to see what he can tow. |
Sorry, I meant a cheap rate to store a trailer that he buys...like if he paid the whole boat storage fee up front, maybe they'd cut him a deal on storing a trailer. Â I'm kinda thinking out loud here.
Thanks CE. Â I don't know all the equipment this boat has, but I plugged in what I did know and it came out around what my bro said.
He's going to the lake tomorrow so hopefully he'll take a really good look at the boat and really question the owner. Â He did try to get a boat mechanic to come look at it but they are all swamped. Â Apparently the boat business in GA is good. Â With the airline and gas issues, folks are staying close to home so they're putting their money into boats for their recreation. Â Kinda funny, when you think how low all the lake levels are there. |
Is he anywhere near Rome. I no nothing about storage in GA. I do know that most in Havi don't offer disc.'s and the ones that do, it isn't much. Keep in mind that those NADA rates are averages. And nothings average right now. I think that seller would come down quite a bit if he was motivated enough. For two years GA is screaming no water for anything, must be a hidden lake that nobody knows about yet. |
Here's some lake info I found, WD...
Georgia Power completed the dam to form Lake Oconee in 1979. The lake is 19,000 acres with over 300 miles of shoreline. The lake is filled by the Oconee and Appalachee Rivers as well as some very large creeks. Lake Oconee is unique in that the water never fluctuates more than 18 inches and is pumped down and filled back by Georgia Power daily. This movement of water makes the fish feed on the current movement just like that in the ocean. Oconee has a thriving largemouth bass population as well as hybrids and crappie. The abundant shad in the lake keeps the fish healthy. The lake has very little vegetation and some standing timber, most of which is in deep water. The primary holding areas for bass are boat docks and points. Golf communities such as Harbor Club, Reynolds Landing and Reynolds Plantation surround the lake and their docks provide excellent cover for bass. The legal limit for a keeper largemouth on Lake Oconee is 14 inches or larger.
Their house is part of the Cuscowilla golf community, sounds pretty fancy:
The Lake Oconee area is fortunate to be served by nine exceptional golf courses. With rolling terrain, elevation changes, streams, mature trees and proximity to lake water, each one offers a unique experience to the golf enthusiast.
The highly acclaimed Coore/Crenshaw designed golf course is the centerpiece for the community of Cuscowilla. Cuscowilla winds through rolling meadows, forests of pine, and along the shoreline of Lake Oconee. This course has Blue Tee rating of 72.2 and a slope of 132. Selected as one of America’s Best Courses by Golfweek Magazine (March 2001).
Maybe we'll be seeing my nephew on the tour in 10 years or so.
