Atlantic Yacht Basin

Under new ownership and new monthly dockage policies, I can no longer give AYB 5 stars. Monthly rates have increased to $555 per month, which is still a deal. However, unlike other marinas and AYP’s former policy, the monthly rate is now only available from the first of the month to the last day of the month. For example, we arrived May 20 and were charged for the whole month! Our plan was to stay 30 days until June 20, and we were going to be charged $444 for May at the old rate, and $555 for June at the new rate. $999 for 30 days.

Well located stop. Everything we needed. Staffed 24x7. Laundry, water, elec. No current. Easy in and out. Walmart delivered groceries to the marina parking lot.

We have been very happy with AYB in the past. The location is amazing. James Taylor is a top professional who did his best for us with winter storage and a punch list We were, however, very disappointed with incomplete work items and a consequent two week delay in starting our cruise. When we finally were able to leave, we were treated in an extremely unfriendly and unprofessional manner by one of the senior executives.

the staff were all very friendly but bathrooms and the showers are so dirty. it is not a marina, it is a yard for boat maintenance.

Highly recommend. Super helpful dockmaster. Easy walk to town with great food and grocery options. Nice quiet and calm night at the dock. We will be back.

Nice easy stop for the night great fuel price restaurants within walking distance. Staff very friendly and helpful

Had a great stay for a few days. Assistance at the fuel dock and a pump out was great. Moved to a transient berth and again they couldn't have been any better. Bathroom was clean but busy. Plenty of shopping within walking distance. Great stop!

Great location if traveling north or south, competitive fuel prices. But bath houses are in desperate need of improvement

Always friendly. We've stayed many time in the past and look forward to stoping here going north and south on the ICW

Easy access to fuel dock, transient slips and great for an early passage through Great Bridge, and then the Great Bridge Lock. Friendly help on the docks.

Stopped for fuel and two nights but had to leave due to power issue. Shore power would not deliver above 106v with booster. Edd was extremely helpful and accomodating but it just didnt work for us.

Facilities are in need of a refresh but you cannot beat the location. Staff are very nice as well.

Great people great service! Got our auto pilot problem repaired in less than twenty four hours.

Great place. Wonderful staff.

We arrived at the marina at noon and spent an hour circling outside the marina trying to contact the Dockmaster. It was a Saturday, so no one was in the office but the recording said a Dockmaster was on duty 24x7. We tried 3 different radios using both Channel 16 and their channel 68. Also tried calling and left a message on voicemail. Finally after 1:00 PM the Dockmaster answered the phone and said his phone had fallen in the water and he just got the replacement. He acted surprised when I said I had tried for an hour to contact him by radio, but offered no explanation.

Great staff. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Huge boatyard with all the services you might need. Bath/shower might benefit from an upgrade but not bad. Very close to restaurants, grocery, museum, etc.

Always a great stop. Very friendly people and clean facilities. We will stay again when we are in the area.

Helpful dockhand got us tied up and later helped pull the boat ahead for fuel up. Fuel price was great at $1.75 with discount so we took on 700 gallons to top up the tanks. Also got a good recommendation from the dockhand for a nice restaurant within walking distance. Perfect one night stop for us.

Marina is popular because of convenient location next to Great Bridge but really could use some refreshing. Pier light next to us appeared to be held up by a shoestring. In 20 day trip from Annapolis to Beaufort, NC and back, AYB dockhand was only one we encountered who offered no help except to catch the lines. He seemed poorly trained. Just this captain’s perspective...maybe just a little off that day.

The positive aspects are easy on and off, good fuel prices, strong wifi, on site service dept and ship store, and well priced dockage and laundry. The negative aspects, the laundry room was filthy, water smells foul coming from shower, and during this time of social distancing due to the Covid 19 virus, the bathrooms look like long term customers have moved in with shampoo, used bars of soap, q-tips etc laying on most available shower space requiring others to touch/move items just to take one's own shower.

The staff at this marina are outstanding- efficient with docking help, fueling, pump out, etc. We had a minor mechanical problem and it was resolved in a couple hours because they have a talented subcontractor base that works to service AYB and their customers.

We ducked in here to avoid Hurricane Dorian and ended up contracting to leave the boat for an additional month. This working boat yard is terrific, professional, helpful, friendly and provides quality work.

Came to Atlantic Yacht Basin thinking we had a hull leak. Upon arrival, received great help with pump out and docking. Within the first hour, one of the main boat engineers came over and spent time on the boat in the engine room where we noticed water coming in. With additional checking, stated we did not have a hull leak and other things we needed to check. Very happy with the service and honesty.

Good stop while on ICW. Close to Bridge and Lock. Basic accommodation.

Awesome Place ! Doug (Dockmaster) is on point helps out non stop ! We will return , Highly Recommend And a great town in walking distance ta boot

Great service, easy in, easy out.

As advertised. Very helpful staff!
