My brother and I did a lot of investigating.\u00a0\u00a0There are several places from, Hammond, IN to Racine, WI where we could keep the boat.\u00a0\u00a0We visited them all and decided on Waukegan, IL.\u00a0\u00a0The Waukegan Harbor Marina is nice, the travel time from home to the Marina is exactly an hour, the slip price is good and the Larsen Marine boat yard is right next door.<\/p>\n
