I have a idea here hold my beer
IMHO -Turn up the volume. Listen closely, thrusters are in play. A good twin screw operator can perform a wonderful demonstration, I doubt this boat is operating with just twins.
I agree.
Twin screws and thrusters with very little wind. It would be a concern if he couldn't make it look good in those circumstances.
Undoubtedly twin screws but still...
Sorry, I'm not impressed at all. I could do that with my single.
I was tempted to say that too, but didn't want to appear to be bragging!!
Obviously no lines are stopping it from going further into the slip; just the fenders. Its not been much of an issue, just a worry.
Just the same, lease end will be a welcome time.
I have never known a marina that wouldn't allow an existing slip holder to move to another empty slip during a lease period. In my mind, that's just someone too lazy to handle it. Sure, they'd have to adjust price and notify accounting and get a different lease signed. However, it's called customer service.
Except if the marina is fully booked like mine and marina must toss a monthly payer to favor an annual one

Any marina developer that doesn't have fairways at least 1.5 times the lengths of berths is due for ... criticism.
Note that I said "empty slip."
You see some marinas in our area packed beyond anything reasonable. Boats that can't get out unless another boat is moved.

An absurd situation unless wants to permanently park/abandon their boat.
Indeed, my poor English reading skills made me skip this word

I would hope there is some sort of legality that could be applied against that marina along the lines of them preventing tenants from having ready access/use of their boat.
In the overhead photo,
it (almost) looks like with say, 15% fewer boats, they could all be reorganized to line up on just one side in each fairway. Leaving an open lane to get in and out. The largest yachts could be out at the ends.
Maybe I just like puzzles.
