Report Review
When approaching the marina I told them we would not need any help docking. As it turns out, we needed a LOT of help. There was a wicked cross current that caught us and carried us into a mud back. I called the marina back and within minutes there were three dock hands in a skiff and two more on the dock. They managed to pull us off the mud and get us lined up in the channel. They followed us to out slip and helped get us tied up and power on. They loaned us an extension power cord because ours was not long enough.
Thank you to all they hands that helped us. You turned a pretty stressful situation into a pretty minor inconvenience.
The marina itself is wonderful. The docks look like they have been newly planked with man--made material. The shower room is huge with individual lockers. Bring your own lock. There is a captains lounge with comfortable chairs, free soda and coffee, and a huge TV. The gym is amazing. Lots of exercise machines that look like they could have been installed yesterday.
Overall, this is one of the finest marinas we have stayed at. When passing back through the Chesapeake Bay, we will certainly put this marina on the A list of places to stay.
