Follow the money. If Champlain's expanded their docks it would not cut into the anchorage area, it would cut into the town's mooring area which is generating a tidy bit of revenue at almost no cost. Same issue at Old Harbor. Folks are anchoring for free. Imagine that, something for free in this day and age. |
