Luckily for me the other local cat friendly beach right in front of my shop which holds about 200 boats is safe for the moment. I've been waiting for the scenario above to play out here on Harbor Beach every time some yahoo makes a bad decision and gets their boat crushed in the surf. I hope it never happens...
Selfishly speaking, I gained a few more boats on Harbor Beach today. The cost of losing a very cool semi-secret launch spot just isn't worth it though.
