Is there a public use mooring ball at the Vandenberg? I have a 38' 10-tonne sailing yacht. We're going to be doing some diving down here. I know the state maintains many public-use mooring balls throughout the park, but can't find any details wrt the Vandenberg site specifically.

Hi all Its been many years since I was active on here. After going all technical-nerd for a while I changed directions and spent a few years focused on flying. Flew the airshow circuit a little (low level formation aerobatics, at night ftw!) and am now back. Hello to anyone that remembers...
