Moorage on Lake Washington

Perhaps I left calling too late, but by the time I called my moorage place on Portage Bay on Lake Union last weekend all they had left were three 40′ slips costing around $1600/summer. This sent me off the deep end, but I fortunately then found a covered slip on Portage Bay for $1200/summer that was more my size. But even better was the email I got from a friend and co-worker who is moving to an apartment on Lake Washington which happens to have slips available. Today we struck a deal to store my boat there for the summer. I’m a little worried about the rougher water and the long commute to get to the on-the-water restaurants, but it’s ideal for wakeboarding. Needless to say I can’t wait to drop it in after I get back from skiing the first week in May!
