Hingham Shipyard?

I just left there a couple hours ago, place is still full of boats, I hope they tie extra lines on like I just did for my brother who just bought a boat a week ago and went to Florida for the weekend. I asked him where the trailer was, but it's in storage, so I just tied extra lines on, hopefully it stays put and no others crash into it.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Mine is in the front yard. Brother helped me bringing the trailer to the ramp, and I powered it ALL the way on. We have been doing this for each other for years. Minute and a half, tops. I see cars stopped at tolls getting change longer than ours is on the ramp. But it was a zoo down there at high tide.

Earlier, I helped #^&#^&#^&#^& get his boat out. He called as I was bringing my boat around to report both bearings had blown out. When I went to see where he left it on the side of the road, it looked like he had gone through bearings, racers and probably the spindles.... He's screwed. I know what he'll be working on tomorrow AM. Thankfully I have been doing maintenance and rebuilding mine over the past couple years.

Yup, I was down there at 8:30 or so last night doubling lines. I'm on A dock, most boats were in, but only 1 boat next to me before the end of the dock still in. Made sure to throw extra bumpers over, and to double check the boat next to me, and his lines were already doubled.

Worst case a dock cleat rips free, then I have a problem.
