It's not just PWC's that dock-hog. I've seen all types of boats take up the center of a pier in such a way that another boat cant use the space at either end. I have no problem asking someone if they can shift their boat but have gotten mixed results.

After waiting a reasonable time, I've moved smaller boats a post or two to free up some space or provide a little more moving space after tying up. Anyone who does this needs to remember they are liable if the boat is re-secured improperly.
