Docking

The prices in my post are for Washington and British Columbia area. I suspect that prices vary wildly by region.

I have a 40 foot slip now and pay $212 a month plus electricity. In my old 30 foot slip it was $160. When I lived in Seattle a 30 foot slip at the port owned marina was about $250 and at the newest marina it was about $350, but included cable for what thats worth.

If you meant guest moorage when visiting marinas or parks while cruising about, it varies wildly. At a mooring ball in a state park it costs $7 a night or $11 on a dock up to 36 feet. Marina''s I have stayed at have charged me from $11 to $45 for a night at their docks with electricity. Showers usually are about a dollar.

Docking

Out of the 20 years that I have lived in Annapolis, I only paid for a slip for a year so I am not sure what the going rates are. For the past couple years, I have kept my boat at my house but I have a couple slips that I rent out at the house. I get roughly $1500 per year for a 27 foot slip and $2400 for a 42 foot slip both are well protected. Water and electricity is available but generally is not being used. The 42 foot slip is pretty deep (9-10 feet) and so gets a premium since a boat won''t touch bottom during an extreme low tide.

I would say a 9 - 10 ft slip that far up the bay is far more than a premium.

That''s TRANSIENT. My edit button isn''t working on this board.

Electricity is generally $35 to $50 extra per month, a couple places metered.

Pumpouts and water were always free.
