Can I put a Catalina 34 in a 34 foot slip at South Beach Marina in San Francisco

I've waited 6 years for my name to come up for a 34 foot slip at South Beach Marina in San Francisco. I now have the slip and have an offer in on my dream boat - a Catalina 34 - for that slip.

I'm now learning that I may have been on the wrong list all these years for that boat and I may need to start all over again. They seem adamant (at least the one person I spoke to) that no section of the boat can extend more than 12 inches over the length of the slip.  IE - no more than 35 feet overall.

Does anyone out there have a Catalina 34 in a 34 foot slip at South Beach?

Thanks very much,
Rob

ROB

Super!   Hope your offer is accepted.

Yes, most of the C34's in SBH are in 34 feet slips - on D and E docks.  My boat is in Slip D040.

Rob, the specs say the boat is 34'-6".  Show 'em the brochure.  Here:  http://www.c34.org/images/c34_88_brochure_4.jpg
