That's pretty much what I'd decided. I'll give "Aviators" a call
first; I've a bias towards husband/wife owned businesses.


They were very helpful on the phone, and even indicated that they'd
prop-locks available.


Glad to hear you had a relatively good experience..

Be aware that BVY's transient parking doesn't seem to include a lot of
actual tie-downs. Aviators made sure I was in one, but - next time - I
suspect I'll bring something I can install myself Just In Case. Is
this common? I've not overnighted too many places yet, but where I
have (Chatam MA, Wildwood NJ, some others) "tie down" space actually
included tie-downs.


I've seen it both ways. Generally, if there are spots with no tie-down ropes,
they are for the transients.

The planes that I used to Rent before I joined the flight club I'm in used to
have a set of tie-downs for just this purpose, and I used them several times.
