Bruce: It seems to me that a "select committee" chosen from our group and other boaters should be involved with all meetings the DPHD has. This committee of...

Sorry we are having so much fun sailing up the coast I'm getting a little behind on my marina reports. We are now in Santa Barbara - cool place. I should...
Tom: I could not agree with you more. There appears to be so much deception in this process that it is depressing. As the adage states, figures don't lie but...
The “ruler” for slip size has got to go back to what we have in the harbor today. Any other “ruler” would distort the analysis and make it difficult...
Written on 1/5/2007 Santa Barbara Harbor reminds me of New England. We were on an end tie directly across from the Coast Guard ship. There was a constant...
Fellow Boaters, Greetings from Ventura Yacht Club! Diane and I have been sailing up and down the Santa Barbara Channel for the last 7 days. Each marina that...

True, while they will eliminate 100% of the slips under 30 feet they will be adding slips in the larger categories. Then net loss from the slide is 400. I...
Bruce: While at the harbor today I was wondering why the DPHD isn't looking at getting rid of the large pier over by the Pilgrim. I am speaking about the...
... will be adding larger slips, but that will help those on the waiting list that want our spots in the harbor. Almost 900 small boat slips will be lost, no...
The DPHD plan is simple. Get rid of the little guys and invite big guys. The big boat list will go down, (for a while), and the little boat list will get...
We have a price sheet from Dana West, if you measure the square ft price of our 24 ft slip, it comes out to 1.21 per sq ft. The guy in the 55 ft slip is paying...
It would seem to me that the goal of this process should be to balance the needs of the current slip holders with the forecast of future needs to come up with...
I agree with you that the slip rates should be equal on a per boat length foot basis. I guess the "volume discount" could be argued in the case of the larger...
<<< the goal of this process should be to balance the needs of the current slip holders >>> One might say the goal is to keep Dana Point Harbor a harbor that ...

In today's 1/9/07 Register there is an article titled "Harbor Changes" and sub titled "Cutting the number of slips in Dana Point is a sore point with small...
All great points. Public boating access is already being threatened and compromised in many parts of the country, mostly due to developers cashing in with...
Well, I guess if it would be viewed on an income per sq.ft. basis (although my cursory look at other marina pricing does not seem to show this kind of rate...
I think I was unclear in my "economically viable" comment. I wasn't saying that the greatest amount of possible income from the resource was the criteria, only...
Can someone take notes at tonights meeting and post them for those of us that will not be able to attend? Thanks in advance. Bruce Sent via BlackBerry from...
Hello from Catalina Harbor! What happened at the meeting tonight? Was it an exact repeat of the meeting on the 19th? Thanks, Bruce Sent via BlackBerry from...
Dave, Thanks for the update. Sounds like they are now being more honest about the likley outcome for small boaters. Did they discuss costs and revenue like...
They brought out a chart that showed the waiting lists for 100 months , interesting span of time, from 1994 through I beleive 2001? and their was no waiting in...
I did not make the meeting last night, but it seems to me that they are making a strategic mistake by saying there are "no promises" to the small slip holders....
The Orange County Register had an article in this morning's paper. If you don't get the register the link to it and the actual article is posted below. ...
Ted, Thanks for sending the article, they don't have the register on the news rack over here at the Isthmus. The dates in the story sound all wrong to me....
