Report Review


Idling in front of the marina, looking it up on Dockwa after a nasty ocean run, I saw Trump signs posted at the gas dock. I'm not opposed to folks having a political position or business owner donating to a particular candidate, but I don't think a) it should be used to say, this gas is only for Trump fans (aren't we boaters all patriotic Americans who need fuel?), and b) I don't think politics should be forced into our mutual favorite *escape* from the real world. So, people who love mixing their boating with the passion for politics and particularly one person, and like pushing away fellow Americans on arrival, are clearly welcome at Hoffman's. All others, are clearly not. Effectively, it's a no trespassing sign, and we understood it well. I'd feel it was equally inappropriate if it was a Biden sign. It's just not the place. We moved on. This summer we've stayed at over 50 different marinas. This is the only one we saw with any official political affiliation. We'll avoid it, and encourage everyone we meet to avoid it too.
