, a vocal collection of boaters aired their frustrations regarding the town’s flagship attraction: Frisco Bay Marina.
For more than 35 minutes, boaters expressed their concerns, namely those specific to this summer’s “dock island,” which floats several hundred yards offshore. The boaters also detailed other safety, communication and mismanagement concerns they’ve had with the marina over the past two years.
