how close do you need to be?

South Park marina down here in Seattle will let you do anything you want.

Hi Kim, last time I checked Everett Marina...

lets you do your own work. What did you have in mind? When it comes to bottom painting and the preparation and clean up work there are environmental rules that you must follow such as tenting the boat if power sanding and laying tarps on the ground to catch any falling toxic debris. Terry

Everett Might Be

A little Iffy now that they have reduced or removed most of the original layout of the place due to Condo. construction. I agree right now your best bet is Dagmars. They are limited to size though probably 40' or less for haul out. Just guessing though as they use very large fork lifts. Everett is just another example of our old way of marina life disapearing. One of our, if not the best chandlery around after 45 years of business has 1 year to find somewhere else to go. Edit: One more thing . You will have a bridge to deal with at Dagmars though. Old HWY 99 , dont know about opening proceedures. Anyone else chime in if you know. I would like to know myself. It should be on the chart though.

Thank you

Thanks for the responses so far. If anyone has other ideas I'd like to know. Yes, Seattle is fine and I'm going to contact all the places listed so far. I MIGHT need to barriercoat and bottom paint, but no sanding for that, my hull is bare right now. I'd like to find a place to allow me to pull my mast and rewire it (small impact) and put in new throughhulls. Nothing major. I just need a place to park and do some small maintanance before I get her wet.

The last time I checked the largest boat...

that Dagmars can handle is 36 feet. That was about three years ago. Everett marina upgrade has ground to a halt because their two big investors have backed out of the program. Not sure where things go from here. They are still hauling and splashing boats through their yard. I would still give them a call to find out whether you can get your boat in for some work. Also, LaConner has two haul out facilities and you can do your own work. Terry
