Boat-Size Marinas

Marinas for Sailboats

Sailboats need mast clearance, deeper slips for fixed keels, and protected basins for spring-line-friendly tie-ups.

• • Beam 9–14 ft for typical cruising boats
• • Draft 4–7 ft for fin-keel cruisers
• • 30A shore power most common
• • Confirm bridge clearance on entry and exit
• • Floating docks make finger-pier rigging easier
• • Hurricane-rated stand-on-end pilings preferred
