Not to be a killjoy but small claims court will most likely be your only recourse. Unless there is evidence of repeated abuse at this specific marina I don't think the AG will get involved. It's unfortunate this happened to you, but there was no other way than pay the bill to get the boat.
Posting your experience here will probably hurt the marina 3 times over in lost business than the $400.00 they collected from you. Some business owners just don't get it! They should have tried to negotiate with you, rather than have you absorb 100% of their mistake.
