Ditton* As part of a continuing effort to identify, monitor, and interpret recreational opportunities and problems along the Texas Gulf Coast, this publication focuses on marinas with wet slip boat storage. In an earlier study it was suggested that wet slips will be in increasingly short supply (l l. Not only are new marinas on the Texas coast unlikely to be forthcoming, but in the market place struggle for shore space many existing recreational amenities such as marinas are likely to be lost. A recent example would be the loss (in 1957) of Bimco l\/larina at Freeport, which was bought by Gulf Oil Corporation and discontinued as a marina operation, resulting in a loss of 45 wet slips to pleasure boaters. The uncertainty of the marina base is accentuated by many factors, one of which is the severe subsidenceproblem in the Clear Lake area south of Houston. This area contains approximately half the total number of boat slips available on the Texas coast. The impact of subsidence on marinas is evident at the 700-slip Watergate Yachting Center which has recently had to construct new walkways and finger piers three to four feet above the level of the original facilities. This action was necessary because of subsidence. The original walkways and finger piers were constructed in 1965. *Flespective|y, research associate, research assistant, and associate professor, The Texas Agricultural Experiment Station (Department of Recreation and Parks). KEYWORDS: l\/larina/Gulf Coast/Texas/pleasure boat storage/coastal recreation/facilities/inventory. The impact of subsidence is particularly severe on marinas with covered or enclosed slips, for the cost of raising the large metal structures or extending their ceilings is clearly prohibitive and increases the financial strain on already marginally profitable businesses. ' This document is a base line study. The only previous attempt, of which we are aware, to do this type of work in Texas was an inventory undertaken by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) in 1968 as part of their statewide recreational plan. Budget constraints made field study impossible, and inevitably TPWD used mail questionnaires and secondary sources. The study was primarily restricted to large marinas; "mom and pop operations" were excluded. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department inventory identified 2,381 wet slips, whereas this study identifies 5,469 wet slips. There are four major reasons for compiling and distributing this inventory: l. Trade groups, associations in other spheres of business, and user groups have organ- §§ ized both formally and informally to protect their spheres of interest on the coast. To advocate their case to relevant agencies, boaters, industry representatives, and marina operators need supporting data. Data relating to such aspects as economic impact, spheres of influence, market areas, relative importance, and slip shortages can only be generalized, and hence useful, if the total number of marinas is known. The importance of organization, advocacy and data to coastal groups is emphasized by Grant (2). "The politician owes his position to the people who elect him, the administrator to the agency which pays him. Neither can respond to all the interests even of the clientele which he represents. He rather finds himself listening to the loudest voice, representing the most powerful interest, responding to the most immediately pressing or visible problem." a Only with data can the boating and marina industry be heard. Only with data can the interests of the boater be considered. 2. An inventory provides an empirical base against which trends in all the areas of boater service offered by marinas can be monitored through time. The importance of wet slips to the overall boating industry was discussed earlier (l), and constraints on slip space and boater access are likely to become an important issue in future debates on coastal priorities. 3. Without knowledge of the existing resource base, it is not possible to plan for future public needs. The Texas Coastal Public Lands Management Act of 1973 (3) in com- pliance with the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, mandates the General Land Office, among other duties, to perform "A continuous analysis of the potential uses to which the coastal public lands and waters might be put, including recommendations as to which configurations of uses consonant with the policies of this Act maximize the benefits conferred upon the present and future citizens of Texas." The State of Texas owns the submerged coastal lands upon which most coastal marinas I have to be constructed. Given the task of allocating coastal resources, base line studies of this type are important in that they establish present conditions. Keeping current on the problems and needs of marina operations will provide the empirical evidence es- sential for sound decisions both from a private and public perspective. Inventory work on marinas is emerging sporadically nationwide as states, particularly in the northeast, attempt differing types of analysis for assessing their coastal resource base. The publication Boating Industry, in its annual compilation of statistics for 1975, docu- ments that there are close to 6,000 marinas, boat yards, yacht clubs, and fishing stations serving U. S. boaters (4). However, field studies and inventories such as this one in Texas suggest that these nationwide figures are likely to be underestimates. 4. This study provides the public with necessary information for individuals or groups to identify desired storage locations and inquire as to the availability of wet slip storage. While other sources of information are available, none has been found which provides the depth found in this report. METHODS l\/lost of the marinas were visited personally, and information was supplied by manage- ment personnel on site. In a small number of instances, information was solicited by telephone. While every effort was made to cross-check the material, the 2,500-mile length of the Texas shoreline makes omissions possible. lf omissions have occurred, they are likely to be small facilities located in remote areas and not known to other operators, since op- erators were invited to confirm or amend the merging inventory as the field work proceeded. The use of primary sources for collection of the data suggests that errors of commission are likely to be similarly insignificant. Since this publication will be regularly updated, the authors welcome notification regarding errors of omission or commission. DEFINITIONS A marina is defined as any facility offering wet storage for 10 or more pleasure boats and providing direct access to Coastal bays, Laguna Madre, or the Gulf Coast. This study is concerned only with enumerating pleasure boat slips. In some cases, for example the Aransas County Navigation District with more than 119 slips at its two marinas, most of the slips are in commercial use so that only 32 of these are recorded in this inventory, re- flecting the actual number of slips used by pleasure boats. Wet storage is broadly defined to include areas at which groups of 10 or more pleasure boats are docked. This means that in a few of the smaller facilities cited there were no slips, only dock side areas, but these potential storage areas were actually used. This study includes delapidated facilities which have fallen into a state of major disrepair but which were capable of being renovated. The number which appears under the heading Number oflrfmployees in the inventory tables refers to full-time employees 0r their equivalent. Every 2 part-time employees were assumed to be the equivalent of one full-time employee for the purposes of this enumeration. This arbitrary procedure was adopted because of the difficulty of subclassifying part-time employees. Some work for only the summer season but work 14 hours per day, 7 days per week, in that 3-month period; others may work 2, 4, or 6 hours each day throughout the year; others may work weekends throughout the year; while many marinas are family bus- inesses and members of the family may work in the marina for differing amounts of time over the year as demand requires. The merging of full-time and part-time employees was expedient but for a number of reasons (for example overhead costs associated with full- time workers and not with part-time workers) is a compromise which any future study may seek to avoid. Ownership of marinas is denoted by the following symbols: C - Commercial marina Y - Private facility (for example, yacht clubs) P - Public agency marina The survey ofservices offered by the marinas as tabulated in the inventory charts need not necessarily be operated by owners but may be offered on the site owned by the marina operator and not on an adjacent site. ORGANIZATION The Texas coast has been divided into 6 regions as shown in the first illustration on page 7- Each region is organized similarly, starting with Port Arthur in the north and proceeding respectively to the Kingsville-Brownsville area in the south. For each region, marinas and services offered are tabulated. The regional map locates all marinas, and subsequent insert maps are used for areas in which several facilities are clustered in close proximity. Finally, the name of the owner and/or operator is included with the postal address of each marina, when available. LITERATURE CITED 1. Crompton, J. L., and R. B. Ditton. 1975.
