Where to park a large boat?

I have a friend coming down to the lake this weekend. He is bringing a 30' cruiser. We are trying to find somewhere (someone) in the Blue Creek Marina area that we can tie this up on Saturday - Sunday (will be gone by around 2:00pm on Sunday).
I spoke with the Blue Creek Marina GM (nice guy) and he said that they cannot accomodate a 30' boat. 24' is the max that their slips can handle, and they would even have a hard time launching it.
We are on the 'small side' of the 49 bridge so we don't want to put it in on that side since we couldn't get it under the bridge.
Does anyone know who/where we can contact to accomodate a boat this size for 1 1/2 days?

Thanks. I have reserved a slip at Still Waters for $30.00 per day (with electric). They can handle 32' boats max.
Thanks for information PP.

or maybe he just doesn't have any "shortcomings" for which he needs to over-compensate :-)

I used to question the "need " for an expensive boat on LM too, whether 40' long or capable of 120 mph too. Then I thought about it - we live in the Birmingham/Tuscaloosa area, and can be at the cabin on Sandy Creek in about two hours, the coast is about a 5 hour trip. Besides the extra 6 hours a weekend that we can enjoy the lake, just think of all of the gas and car maintenance expenses we can avoid by going to Lake Martin - I would say THAT is common sense.

think of the money you could save by buying a more appropriate boat, not to mention how much less gas you would use.
