That wouldn't surprise me at all. We went in May this year and found that it was very difficult to catch a boat from PO FQ anyway as they were always full on leaving POR (DXL), so we just took a 5/10 minute stroll down the Sassagoula and caught the boat from POR, it was no hassle at all. In fact, it was more of a bonus taking the lovely walk than waiting at PO FQ for the boat.
