You would never see any kind of gaudy Christmas decoration at my house. That being said, this dude gets very high marks.

I can remember years ago that RI Rockhound and Tautog use to decorate the Valhalla for the boat parade in Newport.

No boat, back in the suds.

If I had that rig, or even a T-top on mine, it would have already been moved to the front lawn and I would be out shopping for the blue lights right now! Would have no qualms copying this.

You could turn yours into the boat of your dreams for Christmas with some strapping, lights and a little imagination.

Go for it

Love Summerville. 30 minutes North of Charleston. Jeanne and I play golf there often and owned a condo once at legend Oaks in Summerville.

I also use a tarp to cover my boat. I always had a problem with snow and ice building up on the tarp, Last year I used some litter containers with sand in them to keep tension on the tarp. This stopped the snow from building up

That is NOT a tarp, I make a snug fitting custom shrink wrap cover over a frame that uses interlocking cuts to hold it together, I simply tie it off to the trailer, I get about 10 years out of a cover, snow slides right off.
