I am a 72 year old retiree living aboard my 48 foot sailing yacht in Northern California. Last month I had a dispute with one of my neighbors about a shorepower cord, and several weeks later I was advised by my marina that my lease was terminated. This will create...

Thank you for your articles on live aboard evictions. My question is a little different. What can a marina do with a normal tenant using their boat as an improper live aboard, but who pays rent on time, and who refuses to leave after given 30 days notice?
How is this different from say RV rentals, which have a longer process? Once the boat becomes a liveaboard agreement, hence including an actual human being aboard the boat full time, and accepting a 2nd payment (liveaboard fee) for this right, I believe this should create a tenancy relationship vs. a storage relationship. This law needs to be challenged!
what rights do the boat owners have if the marina is not maintaining the facility, it has become unsafe and unclean and many safety hazards (lights on docks not working. gate entrance not secure. there is now a homeless encampment of maybe 100 people that have made half the parking lot the camp. and all of us who have slips there have had it. can we all with hold our slip fees in to a escrow account until management has fixed some of these issues ?
I am a liveaboard at Jim’s Holiday Harbor in Antioch. It has been taken over by a guy named Deon C. His “crew” have physically put hands on 2 residents that i have witnessed, one was myself. He is not the owner, only renting a small area where he sells bait for a dollar. The owner refuses to address this. Deon i am sure runs meth thru marina. Now out of the blue says all liveaboards have to go. And this information was not given either by owner personally letting us know by letter, text or phone call. What can i do. OFF THE HOOK BAIT at 425 Fleming lane Antioch.
Bummer. F3 took over Vallejo municipal marina from the city. The management is so focused on curb appeal rather than maintaining a safe, well-functioning marina that lightposts, curbs, and handrails have new paint, but dock boards are rotting, cleats are loose, fingers are sinking at the ends, and nobody can use their boat at low tides. There is new signage prohibiting a plethora of doodads. Dredge the place! Work on the docks’ dangerous conditions! Quit harassing tenants for trivial schmite! Stop your illegal processes of retaliatory evictions and helpful gestures(?), like turning fobs off so cannot use restrooms and facilities for sanitary living! Stop the dehumanization and emotional abuses!
