Baja Boat Works

In the fall we stow exposed docks to safe anchorages. In the spring they are returned to their pier for summer use. It is a real challange moving a 100′ dock around, everything is in slow motion.

At a recent raftup by Skull Island we had a Frog Sandwich.

This is an example of what happens when you don’t have your mooring serviced on a regular basis. Both shackles are 3/4 inch steel.  The one on the right is new and the one on the left came off a mooring near Orcas Island during a Frogger service visit.  It had gone too long before servicing and was close to failing.  Corrosion in salt water can dissolve metal pretty quickly.
