Marinas: Washington DC area

The Gangplank is the one traditionally most recommended based on marina and location and that's where we've docked. The Yards is near the ballpark and smaller. Capital Yacht Club occasionally has slips available.

If "DC/MD" includes Annapolis, Annapolis Yacht Basin is an option.

One of our favorite marinas as a transient. Yes, the DC/MD threw me a bit too. However, Annapolis isn't too far away. Much easier to get out and go other places from Annapolis.

We're small enough we can often get a slip on the public dock... but AYB is our go-to hot spare when necessary so we stay there occasionally. Last time at AYB I think was 2017 Blue Angels' flyover for the Naval Academy graduation, that time on purpose since most of the city slips are first-come/first-served, and the bulkhead area they'll reserve in advance was already spoken for.

I think the longest boat we've seen on the city bulkhead was maybe about 70' or so... IIRC... I suspect mostly governed by space available in the turning basin at the end of Ego Alley. (But Judy, the Annapolis Harbormaster could speak to whether that's an option or not.)

And remember there's a BS coming up in Annapolis in early October... so not a lot of un-spoken-for docking space available during that.

National Harbor is another option, newest of them all and adjacent to 95.

There's always BS in Washington.

Herrington Harboure North is a beautiful working marina and Their south marina is more a resort marina. I know north can handle you, south you may have to call and verify they have a T dock available
