The wonderful folks at MDR mast up turned off the water up in the corner today, just as I was going to use it.
They said the boss told them to shut it off, no comments.
They shut off a remote valve somewhere out of sight, plus the 1/4 turn on the other side of the fence.

EZ come-EZ go. It was good while it lasted.

For what it's worth, the coin water inside the gate sez 2 min for .25, but it seemed closer to 3 min.
Much better than the deal at the other .25 stations.
Time to start bringing quarters again.

Hello Bill and Sue.
I am not surprised that the County of Los Angeles Department of Beaches and Harbors eventually caught on to the "free water"(as if it is something very taboo) within the mast-up storage yard. I am surprised that they caught on so quickly. They do appear to be very petty. I do miss the convenience of keeping Tropico there and the fast access to sailing away, but I don't miss the all the nuisance factors that all the tenants encounter there. My best wishes and I am looking forward to sailing with you and the "normal suspects" at Marina Del Rey.

We've decided to leave the "Messed Up Storage Area" at MDR until at least next spring. Although this was not a factor when we decided to leave, it may determine if we will return. I was told that "free" wash water was included in the fee. They may have lost a rental fee because of the cost of wash water. Our boat is now on our driveway.

Its difficult to deal with the bureaucrats sometimes.

If you want to sail, just let me know.
