Hey Cyndee - I thought for a second you could buy dockspace for $1 - I almost started packing my bags to move to St. Pete! This is a great article and good thing the city is doing to boost business.

HA, I thought I could buy dockspace for a dollar also, I was going to say, I will take them all. Figured the resale value would go nicely into the retirement fund. Oh, well!
It is very nice to offer up inexpensive dock space an allow boat owners the opportunity to enjoy the area.
