[cool][#0000FF]AFBH definitely has access and parking problems. It used to was just a small harbor with little use but it is now in the middle of a big housing and commercial development area. What was once adequate is now a bottleneck. Part of the problem is limited ability to expand either the access road or entry...due to the American River on one side and Utah Lake and farm land on the other. And there is literally no possible space for additional parking. All of the land to the north and east are the property of the private club.
Lindon Harbor is similar to AFBH in that it used to be just a shallow mudhole with no ramps and docks. Sometimes you could launch larger craft at "high tide" but often it was only useable by small boats and cartoppers. It has grown a lot, both in numbers of users and in facilities. Infinitely better now than in the past. And there are plans to keep adding and improving. Money is the key. It is a private enterprise and revenue is necessary to make new stuff happen.
Rats and trashers? Feed one to the other and you will solve at least half the problem.
