So I still don't get it. The dock is no different. There is no lift, or special ramp or anything. So what difference to the handicapped boater does designating a certain dock do?

From May 30 reply:

With caution and planning, I can manage to get in and out of the boat and then rest a minute on the dock before walking away. I can walk short distances before having to stop and rest. At Wolfeboro for example, the shortest walk from the docking space to the parking lot would be very beneficial to me.
