Note: there is a new set of padlocks for chaining boats by LWBH, they have a key on the rack by fusebox. There are 2 more Masterlocks of the set by key rack. The old American Lock set still opens essentials so this key does not need to be distributed.
Also, there is a new space heater in back room/shower. --PJV 17:52, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Maintenance
- Pump Replacement
Pump failed & was replaced 5/10/08. Not fully functional yet 5/17? PiBVi
- Step Replacement
The 2nd and third step from the bottom were replaced with one new step. New step logs (maple) are stored under the back left side of the toolhouse. The 2nd from top needs replacing PJV
- Stepping stones for path from stairs to porch door?
since grass never seems to stay there, how about stepping stones along these ~10 feet?
- Gutters?
The rot along the bottom of the tongue-in-groove walls (particularly outside the back bedroom above the pump and the Guest house entry) would not happen if rain was diverted from splashing back up onto the walls. Either a "V" diversion on the roof or gutters in select places could save a lot of repair in the (very near) future.
- New Island Docks Needed?: (Mainland dock in need of repair - one metal brace broke at the weld. East side, near shore.)
- Sectional- similar to current system, 4' x 8' aluminum sections on single pole attatchments. Wood, aluminum, or plastic panels on top.
- PROS: easily storable pieces, no long runners.
- CONS: 4'x8' aluminum sections would be harder to bring down steps than even perhaps the long runners. Little improvement for such a cost.
- Rolling- just like mainland, one-piece aluminum on 4 wheels. Wood, aluminum, or plastic panels on top.
- PROS: Little or no assembly, easily adjusted for varying water level.
- CONS: Where to roll it... either by boathouse or dip in shoreline sunset trail, both a considerable distance to roll in water. Placing a track over steps and winch-rolling it up is also very problematic (for one, it would stick up beyond the top of the steps.)
- Rolling sectional- 12' pieces of dock with wheels at one end of each. Wood, aluminum, or plastic panels on top.
- PROS: Less assembly than sectional, easily adjusted to water levels, more likely to be winched or perhaps even walked/rolled up steps and stored by firepit.
- CONS: No easy place to roll thepieces without winch system, which may not be too easy. Rolling elsewhere (by boathouse) would defeat its advantages over rolling dock.
- Floating- augered-in poles and floating plastic sections that rise and fall with water level.
- PROS: Self-adjusting to waterlevels, manageable sections with only single poles instead of H-frames and runners or aluminum rectangles.
- CONS: narrower docks (like what we would likely get) are somewhat unstable- with up and down motion under weight, possibly more than the side to side motion old H-frames had, the pole's auger would be hard to drive into the lakebed there.
