I would walk from the Glendale public docks, or if in the mood, rent a honeymoon suite at Barefoot Beach and request a dock!  |
So I assume that you would be OK with people parking in the driveway at your home or docking at your house because they wanted to attend an event in your neighborhood?
I own a slip at MVYC and we have had problems for years with people wanting to use the docks and bathrooms so that they could attend concerts at Meadowbrook. When they come back, loud and drunk at 11:00 PM, and wake up half the people sleeping on their boats, what recourse do we have? When they trip and fall on our property who are they going to sue? "Snobbish"? I don't think so! Protecting a beautiful facility and maintaining a quality of life? Positively!
The rules at MVYC are no different than any other piece of private property and should be respected as such!
