Default PIB Labor Day Weekend

A question for all of you PIB regulars.... We were thinking of heading to PIB for an overnighter Labor Day Weekend. Ideally we would like to arrive Saturday morning and leave Sunday morning. Alternatively we might be able to arrange a Friday morning arrival if necessary. Probably would have 2-3 boats that we would love to keep together, but not necessarily a deal breaker.

So my question is, how busy has Labor Day weekend been in the past? What are the chances of getting a dock on Saturday morning?

I went Labor Day weekend 2012. Last minute decision. We arrived around midnight Friday, rafted off. I was the second boat from the wall --- all wall space had already been taken. By noon Saturday, the marina was full 4 wide.

I went this weekend. It was jammed. The new docks are great.

It has been crazy busy this year. Docks were full this past weekend by 4 pm Friday. I didn't even get a spot...

I would plan on Friday AM if you want a good change of getting a spot.

Since the docks were all F'd on Memorial Day weekend you can count on Labor Day being packed. Definitely no later the Friday AM arrival for a spot. We are probably going to go Thursday early Fridays are tough for us to get off.
