  There are less frequently used ramps at the Coast Guard station, and at B's.

  Rumor is that YT marina will be closing next week. True?

  I'm just wondering, why don't you ask Ed, instead of wondering why on a forum? You, after all, posted on the other thread I linked to.
  
  I'm not trying to start anything here but rumors don't do anyone any good.

  Nobody said anything about next week, he just wants attention.

  It will be a sad day when the last little mom and pop marina is gone to developers and only the rich will be able to enjoy the waters of Florida.

  Sorry to ruffle any feathers. I asked the question because, unlike some folks, I actually live in YT, have adult children who live here and the employment situation and prosperity of the area (or lack thereof) matters to me. I'd like nothing more than to see the Marina grow, sell ethanol free gas and have a tackle shop to rival Bass Pro Shop. From what Ed says, it ain't gonna happen. From what other people tell me it ain't gonna happen starting next week. I guess we'll just wait and see.
  
  BTW, any attention I get from a few geezers on a fishing forum is not the kind of attention I'm interested in.
