I recommend Paul Chaves @ 1-401-383-9523. He does an exellent job. He will come to your home and do it right there.

lavin's landing and ocean house marina. both will also winterize your engine(s).

Been shrink wrapping for years. This summer, got a great deal on a HD tarp and figured this year I would save some cash and tarp it myself. Well, its done but next year I will shrink wrap again. By the time you build a frame and get it all set the better part of a day has passed. What was I thinking? To put salt in my wounds, I open the local paper that night, there is a guy with a ad that says...Have gun will travel, $8/ft. no brainer...shrink it. Save the tarp for when you roof springs a leak.

The part hard is done. I been doing my own since day one. now that your frame is built, just keep it in a couple of pieces and put it back on next year.

I have 3 stands (look like upside-down tees of 2x3s), one on the bow, one in the cockpit, and one in the engine well. I run two 2x4s from the middle stand to the front and back just bolted on. then I just run ropes over the top and tie them on the trailer or railing. Throw the tarp over all and bungee cord it down, takes me about 2 hours and its the same every year. Just my $.02.

I winterized the power today, and I'll cover tomorrow. :mad: :(
