The original reasons I bought this particular boat was because I will have indefinite free storage--and because I could pay only $100 for boat, motor, and trailer, a project. I can pull the boat trailer up into my neighbor's vacant field and easily turn and back the boat trailer into a level place behind my neighbor's house. It will be invisible and 150 yards from the main street between our houses, but slightly visible from a busy road that if someone were to park there and walk to the boat would entail a 100+ yard walk through formidable growth (with snakes and coyotes and who knows what else?).
I may be able to install a "voice alert" motion detector in the boat that sends a radio signal to a receiver inside my house when the boat tarp is lifted up there. If so, I would be able to interrupt any vandalism or theft in progress.
I am probably being overly paranoid, ha.
