It's good of you to post this "warning" to the new boating folks. I'm not sure what I'd do if I ever found anybody aboard my schooner that I didn't know. There would be a swimming lesson involved, at the very least. And yet that is just something 'minor' compared to the actual REAL dangers people should think about when they're renting a slip somewhere. In most cases, liveaboards at a marina are a VERY good thing and they'll watch after your boat for you even if you didn't ask them to. If a line parts or a fender drops, they'll just hop over and fix it and most of the time you'll never even know about it. Now, those kind of folks I wouldn't even mind if they broke into my liquor locker! I'm sure they'd have a reason for it and with good folks like that ANY reason would be good enough for me -- so long as they saved a cold one for me! BTW, I'm up a little north of you guys. In Baltimore Harbor.
That’s a lot of current. Ya make good points. Parking your boat for a year one better check out the marina first. Kinda like the possible negatives. Example nice solid well kept house for sale $20,000 less than market price ya go see it …nice yard nice house inside and good very good asking price ( only one thing a biker gang has a club house next door !!! )
What would you do if you found strangers on your boat?

I was furious! But I was also by myself so picking a fight with 8 drunk people want really an option
I've come back to my boat to folks onboard drinking. Luckily I knew them and we had a ball. Strangers I'm not to sure of.
Well, it depends on whether the 'strangers' brought enough booze for everyone.
