Not A Single Member Should Give River Side Marina Their Business
I don't believe a single member of OSO or TOPPS should give River Side Marina a single dime of their money. After the way the owner just treated my wife and I today we decided to to see what others have experienced and this is what we learned about what this business did in February of this year.....

This is our experience from today, but after learning about how he treated one of our War Veterans our experience isn't all the important, nor does it surprise us. The guy in the video pushing around the camera man is the person we had our experience with! Maybe it was my shaved head that trigger him?!
The owner of this place is an absolute A-hole! My wife and just moved to Houston and we were checking out different places to launch our boat, something we wanted to do before just dragging it to unfamiliar ramps and marinas. We walked down the dock only a few minutes while we checked everything out only to have to owner walk up to us asking, "are you guys meeting a boat!!?" We said "no, we are just checking the place out." He said, "you need to do that from up there!" Pointing to a deck just a couple of steps up. We started to walk back to our truck because of this guys attitude, but I decided to turn around to explain to him what we were doing, told him "we just moved here and was simply looking for places we could bring our boat" and that "we were not acting like A-holes on his dock." He then replied, "how would you like it if just anyone was climbing around on your boat!!" We both replied, "what boats were we climbing around on! We are looking to give you business!!" His reply, "I don't want you F'ing business!!"
Job well done A-hole!!

We visited Conroe a couple of weeks ago and found a marina that looks like a nice place to launch and I think it is called Inland Marina.

R,
I sent you a PM. Sorry you had to experience that type of attitude. There are other place than there to get the boat wet and you have to be very careful in that area any way. Lots of stuff just under the water that will knock the back of the boat off.
