Boat Storage Ideas

So I am getting my first boat this weekend, but do not have a place to store it at this time. I live at an apartment complex in Eagan and the boat will not fit in my garage. I could store in at my parents house, but they live an hour away. Does anyone have an idea of where I could store my boat? Or know of anyone in the area that has space?

**Note I have looked into storage unit costs, but I don't want to pay double what my payment is for storage**

Thanks in advance,

Nick

I was in your situation a few years ago. I found some friends who rented a house nearby and kept it at their house for a small payment of a couple brews.

Also, there may be some small farms that have storage space available, likely at a lower cost...but i see your in maple grove so not much farm'n there!

Yep, friends house might be the best bet. Case or 2 a month ought to do it

I currently live in Eagan, and because we are just out of college, I only have a few friends that have houses and they are just as far away as my rents (MG).

Let me know if anyone has a place around the area or know of someone.

Thanks!

I already told you that you could store it at my shop for free.... it might be empty every time you come to use it though...lol... plus its only 25 minutes from Cove Bay and smallies!

WWWAAAYYY too far away my friend, but I see why you would want me to do that wink

I will keep my eyes out. Sometimes in the classifieds here at work, people are renting out garage spaces. I wont see the next one until Friday though..

I appreciate it Cecil. I'll send you a message with my contact info if he see anything around the Eagan area.

Thanks,

Nick

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
