In the past 5 years CAVALIER has spent over 15 nights at the Charleston City Marina. A great marina as long as you follow a few simple rules:
1. Do not tie up on the outside of the outside pier unless you gross over 100 tons. It is pretty rocky.
2. Do not tie up close where the outside pier is connected to the stationery pier with a ribbed, non-slip steel ramp. The security cart that runs across that ramp all night long will make for a sleepless night.
3. Do be careful with the current ‘“ docking should be done into the current and slowly and carefully. When departing, plan your get-away carefully so that you have a safe basin to turn around, if necessary.

Sanctuary and crew WILL NOT stay at the Charleston City Marina. If you stay there, make sure your insurances are all paid up and in force. Fast currents, totally unenforced no wake zones, narrow fairways. I don’t need it!
