Well, today was the last bid to keep our Fire and Patrol boats in the marina.
The County Commissioners went public with it today. They laid it out just like Mr. Big Bucks origination did.
We have tried every angle we can think of. Even remodeling the boathouses to match the new marinas decor.
They feel we are not needed and using their own words, We are an Eyesore, an irritant and a detriment to the sanctuary of their customers.
Now keeping in mind that they feel they only cater to the tourist and own the rest of us, how do you deal with that attitude? We have an exit date of Sept. 2005.
All we can do now is wait for the public to react.
Here is a sat pic. Ours is the "7" shaped pair on the bottom of the pic. The fire boats are directly up the pic where the road turns to the left. It a gray color.

Then the new Capt. and new Marine Sgt. call me in. I have to meet with them later to lay out the teams operation and how we have been doing things. For some reason the old Marine Sgt. isnt doing this. I wish he was. So far this is going OK after the shaky start.
Oh well, time will tell.
And last but not least, the SS money is starting to come in so that project is kind of on track.
