If your over 26" beam your options will be somewhat limited outside of S. Florida. I think Thunderbolt in Ga (near Savannah) might be able to handle hauling out a larger cat. Also you could post the same question here. https://www.cruisersforum.com/. Basically the Pelican forums for cruisers/sailors.
I'm thinking liveaboard Oct- May - then haul out and go back to the mountains for spring/summer.

I'm looking at about a 40-45' Leopard so not something that can be ad-hoc.

Again, the only time I'd be away from the boat - it would be on the deck.
