As an island resident, we have more than one boat and more than average docking capacity. On the south side of Welch, we are exposed to the broads and everybody has a breakwater--no temporary docks. Even in a calm cove, if people are wake surfing and the boats move up and down with wake action, no temporary seasonal dock will remain in place. Note that if you might buy jet skis in the future some coves have related restrictions. Once built, there is almost no maintenance to the breakwaters, but decking has to be replaced as with any wood structure that is exposed to weather.
