Yeah you pretty much nailed it. I like floating docks, but good god...back when I first moved in the first thing that opened my eyes was a 30' section of
dock that broke off and was left for almost four months before they moved it from behind someones boat.
The end of my dock(j dock) is also about to break off and when this last tropical storm came thru, the methed out
dock workers came around to 'secure' it with a piece of 1/4" nylon
rope lol...you could cleary see where it would damage the boat behind it if the concrete broke, yet the marina office was getting remodeled while all this went down.
My opinion is they are waiting onthe next storm to come so they can cash in on
insurance before they do anything at all to improve the place. A shame since I heard about how nice it was pre ike.
Anyhow Ill stop complaining. I just knew you could relate.
I would look into watergate but honestly it seems to have more amenities than i would use and is further from the bay than other
marinas. I really like seabrook marina and am starting to consider
buying a larger slip since that is all thats available.
