Speaking of Boyne parking lots and longer vehicles, the terraced parking at Barker (oldest Sunday River base area) clearly wasn't designed with modern pickups and vans in mind. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't actually designed or engineered at all, but that's beside the point.
To fit longer vehicles (pickups, some vans, etc) on most of the terraces, they need to be parked at an angle. If everyone does this, it results in minimal loss of spaces with the benefit of everyone being able to get out of their space (or into an empty space) without issue.
Most of the regulars seem to be aware of this and will park at an angle when starting a row, although a lot of them driving smaller vehicles tend to vastly underestimate the turning radius of an American battleship-turned-pickup.
But could Boyne be bothered to put up even a few signs? Nah. So you get people parking directly perpendicular, leaving those driving pickups and vans with the choice between matching the angle and potentially being stuck if the spaces across the terraced are occupied by anything larger than a Golf or creating a triangular void and parking in a way that gives them a fighting chance of leaving when they want to.
