Once there's a dock there, you know, and, you know, we know how the boats come in, especially the small boats, you know, whether they should be or not is another story. As they're coming out of the harbor and they're just trying to get on step, the other guy's coming back from fuel, or, um, that's a— it's a blind spot there, especially when you have— if you've got a tender up against it. Yeah, I would say that a tender with another boat outside of that often, um, And especially if you're jutting out there, like, it's difficult because the way the tide runs when you're run— if you— especially if you're pushing something bigger and less maneuverable, um, and slower, that you really need to get in position to turn to get in there.
