Can I keep my boat here in Boca Bayou?

Hi guys, Lynn Johnson here. Welcome to my home. I wanted to take some time today to answer some questions that I get probably most often at the top of that list is the question. Can I keep my boat here in Boca Bayou? And the answer is yes, you can.We have 150 docks here in our community. 50 of those are owned by the association that’s us. And we have a dock master who manages those docks for us.The charge for our docks is $110 a month. That is the cheapest dockage in town. You can probably have a boat under 27 feet. That’s what our average size of our community docks are. They’re located throughout the community in various locations. So depending on the dock itself, the location will depend on the size of the boat that it will accommodate. The first thing you need to do is reach out to that dock master, get your name on the waiting list.

If there’s no availability at that exact time. And it won’t take that long. Another way to rent a dock would be to rent from one of the homeowners. We have a hundred condos here in the community that have a dock that they own. And if they’re not using it for their boat, they may consider some extra income and rent it out to an individual. A lot of homeowners do, you may get lucky and bump into somebody who has a dock that wants to rent it out. Or you may meet someone at the pool that knows somebody who has a dock that wants to rent it out, or I’ve even seen notices put on the bulletin boards in the laundry rooms. There’s a number of ways that you can make contact with somebody. If you are looking for dockage for your boat, there’s only a couple requirements. And one of the requirements is you must live here in Boca Bayou. In order for you to keep your boat here, you cannot live outside the community and rent a dock here in the community, and you cannot purchase a dock. Our docks are not sold individually.They are sold with a condo. So if you wanna own a dock, you need to buy a condo that comes with a dock. I hope I answered your question today. Have an enjoyable day. And I look forward to seeing you on my next question.
