First, all the really big boats go to Roche Harbor. I mean the BIG BOATS - 100+ feet long. Maybe there isn't enough long dock space in Friday Harbor. Or maybe the ambience is wrong there - but then I would have no idea what that could mean. If your boat is, say 120 feet long, what is it that you are looking for at a dock? In shoreside amenities? Whatever it is, apparently Roche Harbor has more of it than Friday Harbor... there was a parade of these huge boats going in there every day.
And the other thing... If I could judge which of the folks aboard those monster yachts were the owners, I noticed that there was a preponderance in headgear. No, not a preponderance... it was virtually unanimous. While those of us in smaller boats wear baseball caps, Tilley hats, Aussie bush hats... the owners of the Really Big Boats all wore visors. You know - like a baseball hat, but with the crown missing; almost universally they were white in color.
