Can't really blame them for taking action. We spend an afternoon or two there per week, use the bar and tip well so we were given the preverbal golden pass. I can't wait to see the new Yellowbird next season. I understand that the new owner also bought Merril's III next door and the old Risky Business next to Merril's so he will have a very nice stretch of beach for improvements.
I agree, as a longtime paying guest, I noticed over the last couple of seasons that the number of non YB guests just coming and taking YB loungers was growing. These folks would not buy anything at the bar or perhaps one drink, take the majority of the prime chair positions and then leave their garbage on the beach. It got to the point that for paying YB guests it was difficult to find a "decent chair" and relax.
