Default What would you do???

Here is one for you:

Glendale docks. Weekday. Launch dock..not island side of launch area. No boats except one...tied close enough to the ramp that a trailer with a 25 ft boat could back in ... But not launch.

How long would you all wait? Keep mind the island dock was full .

Would you rather wait until the owner returns in what could be 3 hours later? Would you turn around and go home instead of moving the boat, living by the "do unto others" rule?

I moved the boat back enough to safely launch and be on my way. And will do so again every time without hesitation.

ps. We did wait a few before launching in case the owner had just launched and was parking the trailer.
