Fast Outboards on Great Sacandaga Lake by Kaos Imagery ▼

The Rondack Romp is a yearly event that has been taking place more than 15 years, and the location is incredible. I attended the Romp years ago, and the picturesque Great Sacandaga Lake is a location that is so beautiful that it is well worth a trip there alone, but of course that lake is a perfect place to really stretch the legs of any performance boat. And that they did!

A Truly Incredible Experience!▼

The Alva River Run was just amazing. The entire island was like one giant party barge with boats all around it, and not an extra space to be spared. It really is a great location and there were no mishaps of any kind. Hanging out on the island with a panoramic view of all the boats really was exactly what I needed after being in lockdown so long. The variety of boats there was astounding, from a classic Checkmate to one of Wildman Randy's Liberator creations and almost everything you can imagine was present. It really was a great day to shoot photos.

Whether storing your boat for months or years, a few extra steps can make a big difference▼

With the exception of the the diehards among us, the boating season is over for most people up north now so I thought this might be a good time to outline some tips for the proper storage of your boat during the off-season or just taking it out of service. I should note that this article is about the care of your hull in storage, not the engine and other systems.

There are many sources for preparing engines for storage, however I’ve found that often the hulls themselves are usually put into storage with not much more than a cover. That may be fine for short-term, in-between-use layups, however, additional steps should be taken if the boat is to be stored for more than a month.
