I just don’t see what this fuss is all about. An 88 or 150 or whatever slip marina for flat skiff boats on Girls Bank is ideal. While I can't understand the financial feasibility of a flat skiff marina, among other things it would clear the bay of all the cute little boats that must annoy tourists as they approach the island. Secondly it would provide vast new vistas for sun worshippers and bathers in the bay area thus eliminating the crowds on the three mile long pink beach.
Not only that it would allow even more room for the Bo Hengy to crowd up the government dock. I assume the revenue from the dockage fee must be a huge asset to everyone on the island.
And as for the Taylors – what more could they want. The original proposed two story house next to their bedroom would not only shade them from the blazing morning sunrise, but the shade alone would reduce their air conditioning bill tremendously. And lastly, that shade would prevent fading of their bedroom curtains, undoubtedly adding years to the curtains life. Get real Taylors
