There has been an ongoing discussion on the EXCELLENT MTOA Listserv about the “best live aboard marina.” I have pirated a couple of the contributions in this string here on the Crusiers’ Net. as they give excellent advice about several marinas and marine facilities.
Below, we hear from Captains Laurel and Murray about Westland Marine in Titusville, Florida. This facility is located in the same semi-enclosed harbor as Titusville Municipal Marina, but whereas the city facility guards the southwestern bank, Westland flanks the harbor’s southeastern shores.

We spent time the past 2 winters at Westland Marine in Titusville, Florida. It is across the Indian River from Cape Canaveral.
They have not had a hurricane in many years and insurance is not restricted there.
It is a DIY yard and has excellent local services as well. Grocery, drugstore and West Marine are within walking distance. It is about an hour from Orlando or Jacksonville. Good shopping in the small friendly
community.
We would go back there without hesitation.
