My marina charges by the slip size with a surcharge for any overhang. My Bayliner 4788 is 47 feet at the waterline for the hull, plus two feet or so for the swim platform, plus nearly four feet for the bowsprit. I would not have been allowed in my 50-foot slip!

I had the bowsprit removed, put in an anchor roller (I think that is what it's called) and now I am exactly fifty feet.

The employees of the marina are super-diligent about verifying the length of every boat, permanent and transient.
