So I have a 19ft jet boat open bow...would it be safe to rent a slip for the weekend or is there too much of a risk of waking up to see the boat under water?
Just not sure if I should pull it out every night....
Thoughts???

I suggest you pull out every night. It is a very busy weekend and we have witnessed boats of your size sink on major holidays. Better to be safe then sorry.

I wouldnt recommend a slip on holiday weekends. Youll soon find out why they call it the washing machine lol. But if you really dont feel like pulling the boat out every night and trust your anchors and automatic bilge completely, moore right next to the ramp bow out with the ass end anchored to the beach. Ive done this with my bubbledeck and ive never had any problems with excessive water coming in.

Thanks for the info all.
Sounds as if I better pull it out at night.
Not too willing to trust the anchoring idea. Id rather be safe than sorry.

If your boat has less than 24" of freeboard at the transom when your anchored, I would pull it out.

Thanks everyone for the help and input.

Just made reservations for Aug 29-Sept 2nd Labor Day weekend bungalow 3 & 4.

On a side note, I was told it is pet friendly and was considering bringing my chocolate lab...
Any input on this? Do people usually brings their pets when they stay there? Not trying to be the odd person out bringing a dog when its my first time there lol

We(Nick Rose Insurance fam) will be at the river for labor day, hope to see you!
