Sound like over zealous cops and shoreline owners to me.

No shoreline owners of anything for a half mile in either direction.

Then either the original post was incomplete or we are missing
information.

Sorry - bad explanation. When I saw "shoreline owners", I immediately
thought "residential". This *is* the marina to one side, and its floating
docks are no more than 25 feet out of the channel. Floating docks also at
the launch, 50 feet from the channel on the opposite side. Narrow inlet,
boulders on either side.
