Sorry I have been really busy with work and little to no spare time. After listening to some of the input I am leaning toward leaving the boat at home. It is an 11 to 12 Hour drive and traffic is tough enough without pulling a trailer. Then consider the fact that weather may not permit us to use it. May be 2 or 3 week vacation but a week is just too short. I am leaning toward getting a guide for a day and then rent a boat if we want to. Take a trip to the coast, lagoon or gulf for a day. Spend one day shopping with my bride and the week will be over before we know it. Thanks for all the help, offers and input. If ya'll ever come to N.C. I will be glad to share what little I know.
