Jeff,

Thanks for the reply.

I didn’t know about the ramp at the Apprentice Shop.  Their website says they’re closed to the public due to Covid-19, but I assume you’ve worked it out with them.

I was thinking of using the public ramp at Snow Marine Park in the south end of town.  Nothing on the town website makes any mention of how long you can leave a vehicle and trailer there.  A young lady I spoke to at the harbormaster’s office told me that officially by town ordinance, overnight parking is not allowed. But as far as they know, no one has ever been ticketed in the lot.  (But don’t park on the grass!). 

So, I guess the parking situation will be part of the adventure.  The worst case scenario, I guess, would be to come back from a week of cruising to find your vehicle and/or trailer missing.

I’ve got tentative plans to launch on Aug 18 for my usual one week cruise.
