Looking at that pic makes me think you are lucky to have survived. It looks like upwards of a gallon of water and possibly an ounce or two of pine needles nearly overwhelmed a few spiders on you...

That's normal and part of the contract at most marinas. It's how transient slips become available.

So if public docks in Wolfeboro, Center Harbor, Alton Bay, Weirs Beach, and Meredith weren't installed to attract customers in boats to local businesses, why were they installed?

Yup, most towns in NY have a great plan for public dock use and it's a fantastic state for recreational boating because of it. The popular towns charge for a stay and the less popular towns don't...

Simple solution would be for Meredith to progressively charge (dearly) by the foot for limited transient dockage that exceeds the 3 hour limit, like just about the whole rest of the world (including...

I was backpacking in the Catskills all weekend, did not know about the wind on Winni. Makes sense.

That's how the rest of the world does it. I'm amazed this rarely happens on Winni. An inflatable dinghy is like a giant fender, you can safely squeeze one in pretty much anywhere...

The 47 foot version was 1 million at the show, I'd guess the 64 footer would be more than double that. There's a HUGE difference between a 47 and 64 foot boat. Propulsion cost increases alone would...

I toured a smaller version of that at the boat show. Neat features, but not my cup of tea. I'm more partial to traditional lines. That said, I'd love one of these: https://setsail.com/category/fpb-78/
