The average depth of the Bay is only about 14 feet now, where am I supposed to sail when the Marinites drink up the Bay?

Sea level inside the Bay is the same as sea level outside. Unless you dam the bay at the Golden Gate, the sea level will remain the same.

A bigger problem is: what do you do with the salt? If it's flushed back into the bay, you will have an ever-increasing salinity even with a constant sea level, as water from the Bay doesn't completely refresh itself that quickly.

Maybe they could use the salt for sand-traps at golf courses...
