Where the 300-ish boats will go now is anyones' guess. The Northshore is
full, there aren't any marinas to the west since Gustav, leaving only
Gulfport, Port St Louis or Biloxi as possibilities.


Gulfport Smallcraft Harbor is NOT an option. Every pier and every
piling is gone and haven't been replaced. Probably won't be anytime
soon. People are tying up and anchoring out in the rivers and bayous
inland which isn't a good solution but that's what we have for now.
Some of the other harbors along the coast are in better shape but
slips are at a premium everywhere.

Slips are for women.

Only girly-men keep their boats in slips. Real men sail them and anchor them
out when they stop during their travels.


Real men don't even have a dingy. They anchor out and swim ashore.
