That's for sure! Funny thing is I learned that term from another "bridge tender" (which is a term they probably don't like) when I asked what the opening schedule was. He told me that it was on demand. Somebody needs to publish a set of politically correct bridge terms so one of these guys doesn't dismast me/others.
I learned that actually happened to my boat 8 years ago. Previous owner got in an argument with the - ah - tender, and he showed him who's boss. Most everybody in my marina told me about it after I bought the boat. At least my mast is fairly new.
