I have at least 100 plus charters and I have never spent the first night on the dock unless it was a sleepaboard and even then I have slipped away quite often. I have a craving for two things when I arrive. Get off the dock and once off the dock get those stinking noisy things in the back of each hull shut off. At that point all is good!
This is interesting: do I read right that you have "slipped away" after getting the boat in the evening? This would imply time to get the boat, load it, and get out to, what, Cooper or Peter before dark? What companies have early enough "evening start" times to do this?
