I will look at either option. Marina or private dock ok. MVYC will probably not work because as a renter not an owner pets are not welcome even though I am not using the facilities, just loading and going. I want to stay away from the Weirs as well. HELP!!!!!
Codeman. You'll be living on an island and looking just to park your boat at a land based slip while on mainland. I think the intent of the MVYC pet regulation is aimed at those that use the facilities like spending the day or sleeping at the slip. Maybe Mountain View will allow you to bring your pet directly between car and boat. If they say no then consider the following:

They allow dogs belonging to slip owners as long as the rules are followed. You could put the dog in a carrier and carry it between car and boat. That way the dog never touches MVYC ground. Or maybe you could rent a slip from an owner who would agree to buy your dog from you for the season. They then could ask you to take care of their dog for the summer. As long as you don't hang out at the club.

Good luck and let us know how you make out.
