I don't own a boat I can sleep on so this does not really affect me, but I think it would be worthwhile for towns to offer transient slips for occassional use. There are plenty of trailerable cruisers on the market and the towns could make great use of the docks at night and make a little money too. Obviously, the price would have to be steep enough to not compete with marinas and daylight tie up time limits would need to be enforced but the concept has worked well for years in coastal towns. Out of curiosisty, do local marinas have transient slips???
