Just a query for those of you'all who are in marinas that have hosted the big boat shows (Orlando, Chicago, Annapolis); What accomadations are made for the folks that have their boats kept there? Are you tossed out to fend for yourself, or does the management find alternate accomadations for your vessel? Do you have to pay transient rates, or is there some sort of financial break with other marinas. Do they move you, or do you have to move yourself? Just wondering if our marina management is doing all they can/following the industry standards re their boat show in the fall. Thanks

OOPS

Meant Miami; I guess I just have Mickey Mouse on the brain dealing with my marina's managment. I just heard that we will be asked to leave for 2 weeks, up to a month, due to a boat show this fall. Folks learn about this when the new leases are about to be signed, and the provision to vacate is in the new lease. Anyway, I am stuck in the lease for a while and worried that there will be no place to put my boat come August when the term is up. If anyone has had any similar experiences, I would appreciate a serious response. Thanks
