I walked our dock today after checking our boat in the marina following several bad thunderstorms yesterday. 5 CQRs or copies, Several cast steel Claws ( 2 genuine Bruce stamped made in Belgium) 0ne S/S Delta that looked undersized for the 35 foot host boat, 5 Danforth types and 5 galvanised Deltas including ours. Two empty 'slips' where the berth holders are away in the Bahamas, one I know has a Delta on a sailboat, the other I believe a claw on a motor yacht . Observation only of course and of no statistical or scientific relevance. Not one single Roll bar type (unless stowed away out of sight, them being so valuable of course). Our marina is a favourite passage stopover for boats passing up/down the US East Coast Intracoastal Waterway on their way to and from the Bahamas, Florida Keys and or Caribbean so not just a place full of never go anywhere Dock Queens. Oh I forgot the nice 60 foot Hatteras Trawler Yacht on the hammerhead which also has a CQR on a bow platform, albeit a very large one ( to match the obvious boob job on the owner's delightful wife perhaps), I cannot think either would drag much in a blow.:encouragement:.
