Hello,
I just purchased yesterday my first sailboat, a used Pico.
I currently have the hull tied down (right-side up) on the dock in our backyard.
My question is which is preferable, storing the hull tied down on the dock, or floating in the water tied to the dock? When I've rented sailboats, they tend to keep many on the grass, so wondering if this was safer? On the otherhand, keeping it tied to the dock, but on the water, is easier on my back.
Also, if storing on the dock is better, I assume upside down?
Thanks!
Ryan
