I'd suggest that this indicates an arriving yacht. The slip at the yacht club should be vacant, assuming that Jonas' parents own it.
Guessing is fun! |

I always thought it was a dry-dock for a boat. |

As someone who OWNS a slip, I think APO is more right on. I use a Dock or a pier to pull up my boat while its in the water. I take it to my Slip when I want it out of the water. Also heres a better definition IMO ( from answers.com)
A slipway, boat slip or just a slip, is a ramp on the shore by which ships or boats can be moved to and from the water.
hope that helps
(i've taken my six-pack [its a captains license], I would know what it means)
Edit: Its Friday, where's our new vid from Jonas? (/me does the dance of anticipation)
