I have two slips, two moorings and only two registered boats. They questioned my need for two moorings, but I explained that living on an island we must have a least one, and sometimes two slips available for visitors, deliveries, tradesmen etc.

I even pointed out that our babysitter arrives by boat. Most people don't get the full impact of what living on an island means, you have to explain it in detail. Anyway it worked.
