It would cost us about $800 per month plus electricity to dock at a
marina around here, with future rate increases almost guaranteed, and
the risk that the marina gets redeveloped at some point. Building the
dock for something like $30K, and the convenience of having the boat
in front of the house, was a no brainer.

There's a nice lot available across the canal from us, as well as
several new homes for sale in the neighborhood.
