Dry Stack versus Towing

[oGaryo]

Hi

I have a similar dilema, having always stored at home then towed/launched myself previously.

I agree with what's been said above, the cost of running a second car (4x4) is not cheap in itself, and the hassle has put me off of a few occasions so the potential extra usage would be a definite bonus.

Would you mind updating how you got on with the various yards in terms of facilities & costs please? And if you made the decision to use any of them, how are you getting on?

Thanks in advance

sorry, completely missed this post... I had a good look at dry stacking and for this season whilst I tweak the boat in terms of installing what I need and fixing a few minor niggles, I decided to keep the boat close to home on the trailer.. from what I did look at, dry stacking wasn't that cheap to be honest, you do pay for the convenience factor
