Re. the recent TV news clips of a house barged across The Bay and anchored in Richardson Bay is funny: Could the landed gentry on Sausalito hillsides envy the anchor-outs’ lifestyle so much they had them swept from Richardson Bay so they could replace them, anchoring trophy houses out there instead?
Gate 5 covered with climate-controlled garages with roof gardens for the anchor-outs’ BMWs and Audies are next? Docks built with boathouses for their dinghies, mainly Italian speedboats, all behind gates with attendants of course.
Then Forbes Island can return!
