I'm not surprised.
This time of year, marinas are always very busy. They are getting their own boats ready to be sold, prepping new boats for eager owners like you, prepping boats for people who can't wait to get in the water after ice out, prepping rental boats, and simply getting ready for the new boating season. They are probably not even fully staffed yet.
They have trouble meeting planned "ready" dates let alone early pickup. The marina I stored at wanted a planned date at least 3 weeks ahead of time and even then they might tell you they couldn't get it done if they had a crush of people already planned at the same time. "Early" was a funny foreign word. I was happy if they met schedule. I'm not knocking them. I have seen the issue and heard about the same thing from friends at many different marinas here and in different locales. It seems to be the nature of the business.
Good luck for next Friday. Hey, the forecast could change.
