I think they do; but in any event I'm not referring to abandoned vessels. The Long Beach Municipal Marina "fixes" the abandoned vessel problem by impounding them and then auctioning them off. However, some cities or counties have to send crews to drag them off the beach at taxpayer expense, etc., when anchored off shore and then abandoned. In either case, ordinances are involved. Too much "free, unlimited anchorage" in nice areas accumulates its own float community and culture that even the cruisers themselves fighting for the privilege of lingering there may wish to avoid!!! One does not have to live in or near a gated community to experience it; there are many waterfront (canal) homes in Florida, some quite modest. If this were not a big (i.e., widespread) problem, then I don't think there would be so many people involved in its "resolution."If Florida has a derelict boat problem then they don't need local anchor ordinances to fix it. There is existing authority to get rid of derelicts.
Last time I checked all of those bad behaviors were subject to local ordinance. The anticipation of, or hypothetical possibility of...not so much.how would that solve the issue of reported bad behavior which includes, variously--trespassing, nudity, loudness, barking dogs, "public" urination, and theft?
