I agree. Want them to alter their property, their lifestyle pulling in and out and most importantly want them to be the ones doing the work or paying for it because of someone else's problem/screw up?

Move the mooring so the boat sits in the right location and that's the end of it. If your neighbors not a total clown he/she shouldn't have an issue with that absolutely reasonable request of putting his own boat (or his renters) in front of his own house.
