All around our HOA the newbies just want to blow it up, hoping that they can have a slip NOW, thinking four years is enough of a wait. Some propose a raffle or lottery, without thinking if you have a slot for two yrs. and lose a third yr. lottery... What happens ??? Some folk no longer have even trailers. Short term thinking has infected far too many.
This is happening in Gilmanton right now.
New, entitled people coming in who want a lottery vs wait and obtain for life.

I vacationed here for many years but just moved here full time.
I valet my boat. Maybe I'll find a dock. Maybe I'll have to buy property on the lake to get one. Either way, I'm not going to disrupt the current (fair) process.

Who would buy a boat for a slip you might lose after a couple of years?
Entitled noobs...

Wait like everyone else did.
