There are many different rates charged for moorage and associated parking. It is all determined by supply v demand, not by the wants of any lot owner to "screw" their customers.
For example, in Ganges harbour there are many mooring bouys. The local marina that allows moored-out (Canadian for tied to a bouy) boaters to tie their dinghy, and when using their boat, to park their car, charge a market rate that is very high when compared to local marina charges for boat moorage on a $/ft/month basis. They get it because of the ratio of supply to demand and for no other reason.
