"What makes these bureaucrats think several dollars for docking will not be a deterrent."As long as marina owners donate cash/free meals/free slips to local politicians they will get their way. The local Rotary clubs should push for free public dockage, it's in their own best interest. It's absurd to think people will pay $60.00 - $100.00 per night unless it's an emergency. Stopped snowing in NY, for now.Marc
