[Rhodes22-list] slip space by the hour

[Mary Lou Troy]

Historically there has been dockage for diners at Bay 100 (or 
whatever it is this week) on Knapps Narrows. I think the marina owns 
the property and fuel dock and leases out the restaurant. Might not 
be a problem to arrange short term with the marina especially midweek 
but even on a busy weekend they have a couple of very shallow slips 
that don't get used much in their basin. There is also the inside of 
the floating pier. They've put us there on busy weekends - a little 
tricky to get in and out of but it's space if they'll let you use it 
short term.
