I have actually used this function to see where a boat may be located prior to looking at it for sale. The views can be many years old though, but some get very detailed.

Our F36 is setting on stands just outside the shop at my buddy's house for now.

I think so. Second from the end on the south side of the long south dock?
Those coordinates are my dock. Which on Google shows open water close to shore. Thats because its a late autumn satelite image and the dock is on shore for the winter already. I think the image they are using is Nov. 2004. I have gotten a new dock since then built over closer to you in Ferrisburg. If you zoom in real close on those coordinates you can see wooden dock sections pulled up on the beach along the shore. Today you would see galvenized metal sections on wheels pulled up in a line along the edge of the gravel parking area. There is 2009 imagry that doesn't have quite the resolution, but you can see the new dock and the Sea Swirl in that one, though is looks like a white blob next to a white line.

Funny not been there... I thought it was the one facing the boat ahead of that boat you selected (5 boats from right of other dock), on the dock South(?) of that long dock. Your selection does not look like an F32 to me.

I honestly have only been to that marina once, and not when the boat was at the dock, but rather it was on the hard that day. I was looking for wooden pulpits. Thats how I arrived at the choice I made. Honestly I have no idea where its normally berthed.

Oh, that's funny! When I stuck those in google yesterday (before replying to you), it of course displayed as Lakeshore Drive, which is coincidentally also the name of the road where your future F32 presently resides. Actually, it's East Lakeshore Drive, but it was late and I obviously wasn't paying close attention.
There are two long docks in the photo. The one that is lower in the photo (the one you guys are calling south?) is actually the west dock. Our boat (mine and Michael's
) is facing the bottom of the photo, and is the fifth one from the right.
Stated differently, walk from the parking lot out to the dock. Leave the travelift* to starboard. Walk down that long sidewalk surrounded by grass. The fifth boat on the left is it.
Michael, wooden pulpits???

*edited to change travel left to travelift. sheesh.

Doesn't that thing have a wooden bow pulpit on it with that gigantic 32lb Bruce anchor hanging from it? Was it just on a roller? I dunno, maybe I am imagining things.
I see it now with the green bimini.

Just a roller. A big roller. Works like a charm.

Yay I was right...
