The floating docks are to be permanent. The meeting on Tuesday mentioned nothing about going into July with the Harbor being finished.... they didn't discuss the date of completion.
The main priority right now is the Sea Streak Pier (Franks pier) and the Fuel dock, the launching ramp is a staging area for pillings and the new docks, it is not safe to launch boats until further notice.
I think what boggels the mind is How long it takes to get through the Red Tape of dealing with Insurance, the Gov and all that stuff involved to make this work. All those involved have done everything they could to make this proccess move along smoothly, but it's still 5 months since the storm and the first Pier isn't 100%. I give credit to all the agencies involved for expediting as much as they could, but it still takes Months for the system to work!
Next year when all is said and done, the Private boaters will love the fact that they don't have to climb a ladder to get on or off thier boats. We may have a larger jetty to protect us from future storms, and life will go on after Sandy. As I say in my fishing reports...Patience, it will all work out.
