A slip is only one way to keep a boat. These marinas and storage yards hold boats on land — dry stack racks, indoor sheds, fenced outdoor lots and winter storage — so the hull stays out of the water between trips and you are not paying a wet-slip rate in the months you do not launch.

Good to know
What is dry stack boat storage?
Your boat is kept on a covered rack and a forklift puts it in the water when you call ahead. It keeps the hull clean and protected, and you do not need a trailer or a tow vehicle.
Is indoor boat storage worth it?
For boats that sit through a winter, indoor space protects gelcoat, canvas and electronics from sun, snow and freeze-thaw cycles. It costs more than an outdoor lot, so many owners store indoors only for the off-season.
Can I store a boat on its trailer?
Most outdoor lots are built for trailered boats and charge by length. Check whether the yard is gated, lit and open when you want to pick the boat up — some keep office hours only.
How to shrink wrap a boat?
To shrink wrap a boat, cover support structures with protective padding, lay the shrink film across the hull, heat-shrink it with a heat gun, and add ventilation ports. For large vessels or professional weatherproofing in Vermont, check the 5 marine service providers cataloged on MarinaAtlas.
