Default History

I have many memories of sleeping over at public docks, enumerated in old threads. Basically, it got too crowded and the towns weren't willing to deal with it. Charging a fee to stay overnight, and setting a plan so that a one time walk through for enforcement makes sense to me. It works for parking downtown. I think the towns are missing an opportunity. So are the motels that have their own docks.
I'd be happy to pay a meter fee if that got me a dockmaster to manage the sequence of boats and made people stop blocking other boats by tying up in the middle of the dock.
