We are off the Potomac River in Maryland. The slip is about
$12/ft/quarter (i.e. for 3 months) on a yearly contract and the
electricity is metered. (Since it is from a co-op, we get the
electricity at cost.) The water is free. Pumpouts are done at the
dock (they have a little golf cart that comes to you) and are $5 @.

OK forgot to say - fixed docks with short finger piers but our slip
has a full length dock beside it. We have only about 2 foot tides
there though so a fixed dock isn't so bad.

(Transient rates are about $1.00/ft/day with $25 minimum. Weekly
$4.00/foot Monthly $8.00/foot (open) $12.00/foot (covered). There is
a charge for electricity. There is a discount from November to
March.)

They have four showers per sex in two different locations, laundry
facilities and a pool.

There is a yard with both a marine railway and a travelift. They do
work on boats (Mechanical (Diesel and Gas inboard, I/O, OB),
Electrical (AC & DC wiring, electronics), Fiberglass, wood and metal
fabrication and repair, Painting, brightwork, and AWLGRIP) or you can
DIY. There is no extra cost for the boat hauled v.s. in the slip
(although they do charge to haul it of course)

The marina is very protected, but it takes us only about 15 minutes to
get out of the creek into the Potomac (not even very many crab pots)
where we can sail, and takes about an hour to get down to the
Chesapeake Bay.

There is a restaurant and parking, and the marina has various events
in the summer. The marina will lend you bikes or a truck to go to the
local (within 5 miles) store. There are also two adjacent restaurants
that you can walk to from the marina.

Carrabelle, FL
I pay $159/month for a slip at a fixed dock .5 miles from open water.
I have access to power and water. No pump out facility. There are no
other charges. Of course, my boat stays in the slip all year. I am
certain that if I looked nearby I could find a private dock for less
than $100/month but I like being right in Carrabelle.

Other data that would help make comparisons easy....docks fixed or
floating? Single or double finger slips? Fingers full length?

If you are going to ask about floating docks, you need to also know
about whether the tides make them necessary IMHO. Some places
(Charleston) fixed docks would be crazy. Some places, it's just a
nice extra to have floating docks.

Having said that, about $7.00 per foot for a slip in central SF Bay.
Double finger, full length, floating, free water, metered electricity,
free pumpouts. Wireless internet available for $30.

I paid ~$5.50 per foot in Mobile for single finger, not floating, not
full length, electricity extra, free water, no pumpout station.

I always wondered what boaters paid in and around the Big Apple.

There are places for considerably less on City Island in the Bronx. Around
$23 a foot with launch service. In Jersey City you pay a lot for quick
access from the City. If I remember correctly, hauling in Jersey City runs
about another $50 a foot.


That is a mooring, not a slip. In any case, City Island is a long trip
by public transportation. Taxis would easily eat up the difference in
price, and take a lot longer than the PATH to NJ.

I don't know what hauling in JC costs I take Gjo/a to Mamaroneck for
haulout.
