Hi Everyone!
Just curious. How do you guys deal with poor marina WIFI? Does anyone use a wireless set up for their laptop? If so, do you have a service to recommend? Hope everyone is enjoying this weather!

Greetings all.
I am looking for a liveaboard marina in either FL, GA, SC, NC, VA where I can hook-up to strong Internet (my job depends on it). We would also like the marina to be accessible to town for jogging from the marina, decent showers, secure, water and electric and if possible, under...
We are seeking a marina where we can leave our boat on the trailer with the mast up. Does anyone have a suggestion for a marina with this option? We don't need winter storage, a mooring, or a slip, just a safe place to leave the boat on the trailer with the mast and rigging up.
A marina towards...
Greetings folks, I'm new to this forum and noticed that there were some threads about Sailing Lake Pontchartrain, but I'm already here however, I'm being kicked out of my berth (dock) as the owner wants all covered berths (having a Vega '27 sailboat just won't fit!). So I'm looking for a berth...
We are looking for suggestions on where to sail on east coast of USA and Gulf of Mexico. We have a 27 Corsair trimaran and live in New England. We would like to travel south trailering the boat to sail for a few weeks or more once winter sets in (Jan- May). We are wondering how far south we...
Does anyone know what the cheapest mooring in the gta is (Toronto,scarborough,Mississauga and surrounding area). I have looked into aquatic park sailing club but I can't find a cost. I am perfectly fine with a mooring ball as opposed to a dock in fact i prefer it, I just need to minimize costs...
So I hauled out late in the season (about three weeks ago). A few days later I had the marina winterize the engine and water lines while I was traveling for work. Over the course of a few weeks it rained. Then it snowed.
I went to the boat this past weekend ... no more snow on the deck, but I...

I've been looking for a slip on the Space Coast. Do you have a favorite marina in the area?
I've visited several, and need to make a decision and cruise up from the Keys before we get too far into Hurricane Season. I'm thinking late July/early August.
Today I drove to Titusville Municipal Marina (in Florida) to investigate keeping a boat there. I'm working towards buying a boat by next summer and need more info to make an informed decision. There are so many options and I've never actually been to any of the marinas in this area. I will tour...
Hey everyone I'm wanting to live aboard in the OC! I don't own a boat but I know people rent theirs out to people. I know how to sail and everything just not sure where to find a posting with ones for rent or anything. If you have any info on where I can find this info plz let me know thanks
I just bought and restored (well i am about to be done restoring) a 25 foot Macgregor, and now i am looking for a place to keep it. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good, reasonably priced marina in the chesapeake area. I am looking at a place called Queens Creek Marina right now, but i dont...
My husband and I are moving to St. Augustine this fall. We are trying to decide where to keep our 26' Columbia Sailboat. Mast height she's about 33' and draft is only 2 feet. We have done majority of our sailing on lakes, and some in New York Harbor. We are not familiar with open ocean however...
Hey all,
Do any of you along the James know Gray's Creek Marina in Surry? Do you know if they're still in operation?
I was hoping to call them about slips and storage rates but the only number I found for them online seems to have been disconnected... Perhaps that doesn't bode well.
If...
Hello,
We are hoping someone has some first hand experience with the two marinas in San Carlos, Mexico: Marina San Carlos and Marina Real.
We are interested in living aboard (with our dog) and also storing our 28' sailboat there over hurricane season. From Google Earth, it appears that Marina...
I am planning a sailing trip from the Tampa Bay area to the Florida Keys. My first mate is not thrilled about the prospect of sailing our Catalina 445 with a five foot draft after dark. I am trying to make the shot across Florida Bay to the keys as short a distance as possible. Am I stuck...
After sailing on Lake Ontario for several years, we decided to move our Jeanneau Atalia sailboat to Georgian Bay for a summer or more. We are planning to take the boat from Toronto via the Welland canal, Lake Erie, Lake Huron to a location in Georgian Bay this summer.
The big question is where...
Hi--
We're moving to the Wilmington, DE area this summer and I can't wait to get our 26' 1964 Pearson Ariel back on the water!
Can anyone recommend a kid-friendly, laid back marina in the northern part of the Chesapeake, i.e., Carpenter Point, Elkton, Chestertown?
My wife would like a pool, I...
