Took our dingy to the Lobster House, walked down and bought some supplies from the ships store.
We had called ahead to see if they had a slip. When the guy said no, wasn't anything unusual so I asked if they had fuel and pump out facilities and that we would be in port in an hour. I was rudely told that there was a shark fishing tournament and the fuel dock was not available. I was shocked. As this on the chart looks like really the best if not only deep water access fuel and pump out docks. I called other Marinas that said come at high tide. We are just choosing to continue to sail north, our water tank low and holding tanks filling up. I really feel let down by the lack of facilities and there unwelcoming attitude towards full filling the desperate needs of a live aboard cruising sailing from Florida to Wisconsin on Dragon's Lair a Catalina 470. (Shameless tagline).
But anyways it gets better. While at the ships store I see the fuel dock is empty. So I mention to the guy I called and was told due to a shark fishing tournament the fuel dock wasn't available. He very aggressively told me that this didn't happen. I wondered did I dream it up, but no my first mate looked at me he remembered. So I just told the guy: "hey I'm just giving you feedback." He said when? I said yesterday 3:45pm. He said it wasn't him. And not in a nice like no worries man, but like you wanna fight about it? I didn't feel like arguing further so I paid for a deck brush and some stickers and left.
2/10 I'll skip Cape May next time...

This marina is AMAZING. Clean facility, friendly knowledgeable staff that gave us some advice for our journey. The bathrooms are the most amazing at a Marina I've ever seen. Price is reasonable, no more expensive then anywhere else we've stayed. I highly recommend this marina. They even have a courtesy car and picked us up from the grocery store.

Once you make it pas the canal bridge traffic jam..... the charter parking lot is on your left. Get there waaaaay early cause they stack the cars in lines. If you need to bail on the charter before it leaves, you are waiting the three hours cause you are not getting your car out!
We arrived later than we should. My wife and I were on our motorcycles. The staff accommodated us and we were on the boat in a hurry.
Hang out on the rear of the boat and put up with the diesel and noise cause you can get the best pictures...
As the tour guide announces a sighting the whole boat wants to see it. Everyone will gravitate to that side. Staying in the rear deck area you can easily see the same thing without all the heads on the way!
Nice boat, can't say the same for the conditions in the head though...one word...bleach!
Friendly staff and overall nice outing!

Great little marina in a great location. The crew provides top-notch service! The manager knows how to find great people. Jason, Chris, Bob and and the team took great care of us during our stopover. Super location near restaurants and easy ride into the town of Cape May. We will be back!!!
