Now we’re into things, huh? You’ve had some Summer happenings, a couple of picnics, a burn and a peel, and that long pull from an iced-down bottle of beer. Good memories, indeed.
The thing is, and I know you’ve shied away from conceding this, but the lawn is burnt and the Bay is starting to have that Fall'ish look around its edges... all of which means that winter storage is around the corner. And that means winter storage contracts. Even though you might have a child tugging at your pant leg, find time to read through the darn thing. No doubt you’ve got a great relationship with your marina, but when the ship hits the fan, things can rise and fall on contract language, so it’s important to understand what you’re reading. Whether it’s a word or a paragraph, if what you’re signing isn’t clear, speak to your admiralty attorney. And another good resource to keep in mind is your insurance broker. It’s a good idea to make sure that what you’re agreeing to is consistent with your insurance coverage.
That’s all I’ve got today. Work is crowding in like a subway car at rush hour and I’ve got to find a way to get some more time on the water. Underway and making way, or, as I used to say, “Standing by, Channel 16.”
