BH, I guess it depends if they want to spend money or not. These are the issues to deal with:
1. Depth, it getting really shallow in all the docks except for the last couple on the north. The entire street facing side is almost useless.
2. Wakes, there is always a lot of traffic in that bay, you get a lot of general chop from them. Plus a lot of people run very close to the docks. There needs to be a 150' no wake marker at least. A larger NWZ could be considered.
3. Repairs, as mentioned in the beginning of the topic, broken poles and exposed bolts. This seems a no-brainer, someone will sooner or later get hurt and sue.
4. Blocking, most of the dock areas are too narrow to dock two boats and allow a third to pass. There are several solutions up to rebuilding.
5. Attractions, growing up Wiers was the place to go, the last few years it's lacked strong attraction for me. Lately there is some upswing but there is no sense spending big bucks on the docks if no one uses them.
