CRIME ALERT – BALBOA BASIN MARINA - NEWPORT BEACH – Although Dana Point is among the safest cities in the country, this status is afforded by vigilance and watchful individuals. Liveaboard boaters contribute to watchfulness on the docks. The number of liveaboards continues to decline from the 70 allowed. Currently, the harbor has approximately 20 liveaboard boaters. The DPHP are aware that crime is a serious concern. An open communication between management and boaters would serve both parties well, however, many boaters fear retaliation if they complain or suggest improvements to the current management team.
This must stop immediately! Boaters deserve to be heard without fear of reprisal! This type of behavior is just as much of a crime as the persons who steal property that does not belong to them.
It is reasonable to expect security around our docks and fingers. – TRUTH!
The word security, used as a noun, means the state of being free from danger or threat. Our docks and fingers in various states of disrepair may be considered a security risk.
