If I may add a comment; towing a boat in distress or retying a boat drifting away are not the same as moving a boat to allow you a parking spot.
The two scenarios you introduced are an act of protecting life and limb or protecting property. There is no protectional motive in moving a boat to increase space for you.
Upon docking, the owner assumes responsibility for any harm that may come to his boat, other property, or another boat as a result of his placement. I would imagine that responsibility would shift to the person who moved his boat, and that could open up a very large container of crawling things...........
