THE BOAT COMES FIRST

Different boats. Different berths.

A marina’s address or advertised maximum length is only a starting point. The berth has to fit the whole boat and how you use it.

A berth that suits the hull still has to suit the rig and the way you sail.

Beam is often the limiting measurement, even when length looks straightforward.

Consider the berth, fuel access and the practicalities of frequent departures.

A wet berth is only one option; dry storage may better match occasional use.

A published maximum length does not guarantee an available or suitable berth.

GO DEEPER

Make a complete vessel brief.

Hull length alone can miss overhangs, beam, draft and the approach to the actual berth. Use the boat measurement guide, then compare wet and dry storage and browse the boat-fit FAQs.
