I've been at the same marina and same slip since 1980.... I've seen numerous issues through the years, not with me so much as others.... not once have I seen them let a boat sink.... First they make a call... if you do not respond.. they drop a pump and call Tow Boat US ( conviently berthed at the marina) they then will haul your boat and put it on stands in the yard.... I'm sure the insurance companies would rather pay for marina work/rescue than buy a new boat and motor...
I'm surprised that other people at the marina didnt just snap the flaps shut for you, I'm sure there must be otjhers checking out their boats... anytime we see lights left on or other issues, we as a group tend to take care of our own, shutting off lights and/or radio that have left on, or telling the owner that boat X has water on the deck...I've had guy's throw away chum and put away eels( every one seems to know where my keepers are) that I left in my boat ...
A little curtosey goes a long way... something sorely lacking in society today...
