Hi Paul, Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your help!

I'm not actually presently at a marina. I'm at a small boatyard on Salt Creek while waiting for them to wrap up some work.

The owner is extremely nice, and is being very nice to me. But, the boat needs to get out of here as soon as they are done. They untied a rope from my boat a few days ago to paint the deck, didn't tie it back, and when the winds changed, it drifted /onto/ a piling at high tide. The rail got on top of the piling, and when the tide went down did some ugly cosmetic damage. When I complained, their answer? "We aren't responsible for ropes." I had no idea they undid the rope, or I would have put it back. And, since I was around, I should have checked nightly anyway. But, since I come and go -- I can't always do that. There is just too much risk for the boat to be here longer than needed.

Can anyone confirm openings anywhere, e.g. their home marina? I've called a bunch of places, but keep striking out.

Thanks again!
