I can't really go into it right now, but we're pretty ****ed off about the
latest in a series of mindless petty irritations...

If I didn't know better I'd be guessing that you were at White Rocks Marina
on Rock Creek.

That's the thing, may as well stick with the jerk we know! I'm so close to
having enough money to fix the rig, I sure don't want to blow it on moving
costs. At least until the van is paid off come January!

I know 2 more people who left White Rocks this year. One guy moved his boat
during the winter to an empty safer slip. Didn't think it would matter since
most slips were empty due to boats being pulled. The manager called him and
told him to move it back. He went down the same day and moved it back. A few
days later he got a letter in the mail to get out.

That's crazy! Seems like some people just love spreading misery. I don't
think the marinas care about their reputations anymore, there are probably
10 boats waiting for every slip around here.

That was one of the reasons we switched to a mooring and the yacht club
environment. The marina that we had been at for years became "popular" with
a certain sort of boater, and all of a sudden there was a waiting list.
Along with that came a nonchalance about work performed by the yard. When
confronted about mistakes, or poor quality workmanship, they would laugh it
off and refuse to make good. If they didn't feel like performing some type
of work they would quote an exorbitant figure to make you go elsewhere. And
when sailing is supposed to be your "release" from the rest of the daily
crud, who needs problems there?
