Troy, I agree. And then that way your hose is not a tripping hazard for others walking down the dock.

Another great way to avoid this issue is to disconnect and stow your personal hose on your boat or in an approved dock box when the hose isn't being used. That's what I do and it's super easy and only takes a minute.

EVERY ONE of these has seized to the pedestals and we will have to replace those faucets. From today forward we will be charging parts and labor to the slip renter for replacement of the faucets. The cost of parts and labor is about $200 One of our former slip renter sent me a great suggestion. He has a boat in the Pacific NW where they have the same problem. They have been using Eden 93218 Premium Gardon Connect with Shutoff Valve and Water Stop & Lock Feature Quick Release. They can be found on Amazon.
