    Want to bring new boat

    Hey ya'll. This is my first post so be gentle My family has been coming to Gulf Shores for the last 5 years or so and have been fishing a few time with the local guides. and haven't had very good success with them. So I will be taking delivery of a new boat sometimes in April and would like to bring it with us this year and try to figure the inshore fishing out. The problem that I have is the Condo that we stay in doesn't allow boats/trailers to be stored there. So I need to find a secure place to leave my boat and trailer and possibly my truck. I have called some of the local marinas and they want a fortune to keep the boat at their place but not been willing to let me store the trailer much less my truck. So here is the question. Any suggestions of what I can do or where I might be able to accomplish this. Oh and by the way this is a great Forum.

    there are several fenced in storage unit facilities in orange beach and there are boats kept there. you may be able to talk them into letting you do a by-the-week deal that will be a helluva lot cheaper than any boat yard

    Gulf State Park Camp Ground has a place you can store campers. It use to be a dollar a day. Try there for storage.

    Have a place not far from J&M's you can store it there year round with the understanding that I get to use it when I'm there. ;D Joking.

    When will you be down?

    Have a good day, Pez

    If J and M happens to be full, try Marine Max on 59 across from target. About the same prices but not quite as convenient.

    Re: Want to bring new boat

    Thanks for the suggestions. We will be down the week beginning on June 22nd. I will be getting in touch with the places that y'all have mentioned. Hey we might just have to try the pier and put faces to the names we see on here. Probably will learn a bunch also.

    I live in foley and have a large gated back yard. If you want, you can keep it here for no charge. Not a problem at all. I have a 19ft key west, you can park it right next to it if you would like. Just good ol southern hospitality.
