Milford is one of those places where drawing no more than 5 feet is
VERY helpful, if not mandatory. Unless they have dredged it in the
last 5 years or so, there were several sand humps near the mouth of
the river that my keel would bump on my way in or out unless it was
high tide. The town operated marina at the head of the harbor is
nice, but likewise very shallow. Really just for daytripping
powerboats. They had a few (3?) deeper slips, but I was in one of
those and woke up at low tide to find I was firmly stuck in over a
foot of mud with my 5 foot draft. A scuba diver happened by, and he
stood up at the end of my slip. The water was somewhere between his
belly button and chest! Not kidding. Too bad, because the town
operated slips are directly on the restaurant district and the price
was right. There is a nice privately owned marina, Milford Boatworks
& Marina, just down from the town facility, with deeper slips,
but it is a little further from the restaurants and business areas
and costs a bit more. I would call them about the shoaling situation
before making any plans. Danfords Marina in Port Jeff might be able to accommodate you with enough lead time, but $$$$$ KA-CHING! It is a great setup, though. Right in the heart of the village with tons of boutiques and restaurants. Bill Bina On 9/7/2014 10:50 AM, Edd Schillay via CnC-List wrote: John, |
