Larry Just wanted to let you know [as some others have on the list already] you won't be alone with the yak-in-the-living-room arrangement. My brother -- a doc in Fort Myers FL -- stores his yellow 16' 10'' Current Designs Gufstream in his living room on a wooden rack he built. Fact is -- I think it looks great in there! I'd have mine -- a 17' 7" Solstice ST -- suspended from the ceiling in my bedroom, but I couldn't get it to fit -- no matter how I tried to angle it. I guess I don't have to tell you the neighbors thought I was nuts when they spotted that boat -- half out of my bedroom window! I wound up having to build a canvas-covered A-frame structure to store both of mine and three others, if needed! Heck -- if you lived near here -- I'd let you put yours in there too!!! Anyhow -- don't forget to keep those coasters at arm's length! Sure wouldn't want any Kool Aid or beer rings on that new yak of yours now would we?!? <<grin>> Cheers!
