You mean the Golden Nugget Marina, $96/night + $5 for electricity, I can see Roger staying there.
No way I want a penny of my money to go to that dingbat. $64 dollars on this side over with my kind of people.
The only downside is only 3 feet of water at the mid length of the float at low tide. They let me wait to pay until I was sure I could stay. I've got Strider[/] sticking as far beyond the end of the float as I can and the keel set gently in the mud with no heeling so I'm good. If we get the strong southerly winds and thunderstorms that were in yesterday's forecast, this will be a very snug and quiet spot compared to the other side.
I went up into the marshes yesterday after the run from Cape May to try and anchor in the spot I used on the way down. However, the highest tides of the year had covered most of the islands and I didn't feel like picking my way through with the GPS and sounder without any visual references. A strong wind was also blowing and I decided to splurge on an additional night here.
No gambling for me. I lost my stake at the prop and starter tables.
Aquarium Marina
Right next door to you, the Aquarium has a Residential Marina, it is less, no facilities e.g. showers, public bathrooms are locked at night, you do have electricity and water. $1.50/ft, $5 for electricity. 4 hour complementary stay for dinner or lunch or aquarium at the basin.
