Well, just got a $275 ticket for having my boat parked on the beach in front of the Heat Hotel. Sign says NO OVERNIGHT MOORING and references an ordinance, not time posted on the sign at all. I'm sitting up at the RDP Party watching the channel and see them pull up next to my boat so I go down to see what's up. He tells me I'm getting a ticket because the sign says no mooring from 11pm to 5am. I point out the sign that is 5' from my boat has no time at all, the. he tells me there is a sign at the entrance to the channel that says 11 to 5, I ask him if it is illuminated, the answer is no, I drove in at 10pm and the signs cannot be seen in the dark. next he tells me about the ordinance so I ask where I reference the ordinance and he tells me I have to look it up on my phone, assuming I have a smart phone with a data plant. The whole ordeal was very frustrating because the cops were not even informed of their own signage, I was very calm, they just made up one excuse after another to continue writing a ticket and not using common sence.
and the sign that shows the hours, I think, but it's not lit and I cant read it.
