Me: Good morning. I’m on the creek about a mile north of you. I would like a slip for the night. Maybe two. I’m on a 19’ yawl. I’ve stayed there before, I should be in your system.
Lady at the dock house: Very good. Could I have your email so I can look you up in the system?
I give her my email.
Dock house: Is this Steve Earley? I don’t see a 19’ boat in our system. All I see is your 30’ boat SPARTINA.
Me: I’m on SPARTINA. It is a 19’ boat.
Me: That’s because you are going to charge me for a 30’ boat. That’s your minimum size so I pay for 30’ for a 19’ boat.
Dock house: ….(long pause)….Oh, I see. Yes we have a slip for you.
Me: Very good, thank you.

Hi, Steve! Are you in Florida?
I’ll be there either tomorrow or the following day.
All you can do sometimes, is laugh.
David S I accident hit the wrong button and deleted your comment. My bad. I did stay there despite being 11 feet short. Great marina, great place to resupply. Steve
