That really sucks Mr. Ray, I live in the country for just that reason. I have enough people telling me what to do on a daily basis. I'll be damned if I'm going to have a neighborhood watch group tell me what, where, and how to keep up my property. Home owners associations are similar to unions. They start off as a good thing as they monitor all residents properties to be sure each home owners is abiding by the bylaws. Then they become all powerful and begin to tweak the laws to accommodate themselves. If the boat is covered, and not an eyesore, you should have every right to keep in on your property. When you signed the agreement it was stated that a storage facility would be provided and that you could keep your boat on site until is was available. Your attorney friend should offer you the facts that state your boat can remain until the original agreement is met.
