Sailor's Haven - tips, advice, etc?

[KeithD]

Hi,
Two weeks ago we did a Saturday night stay at Watch Hill - had a great time. I think we'll try Sailors Haven this weekend.
Anything to know of ahead of time?
Thanks very much,
KeithD

Keith, you may want to go back through some of the earlier posts this year.... I know there was a post about the buoys being a bit off at the entrance. Below is one of the threads that may have some information for you. I know there were others if you page back a bit.

Hey Kieth
Sounds like a great trip, don't know when you are planning on going but the marina has been full early Friday for the last few weeks. Try to get in early. As far as entrance buoys, I am still using my plots from 3 seasons ago w/o a problem. There is a small tree that sticks out about 8 feet or so above the water when you are about a quarter to half mile from the lead entrance buoy. Follow that path straight to the outer buoy. Done deal.
Have Fun

From the north side locate the EN buoy. when you get there head directly south and it will take you right to the enterance.

We finally got into Sailors last Friday morning, they were full from Monday on. We were over at Seaview and Ocean Beach for the week and just kept calling from Wednesday on to see if anything was open. Brian the dock master is really nice kid and what he did was squeeze me in the east corner where the dingys tie up- had to slide the bow of a 38' which was in the barge spot to port and walk us into the slip. Great time but some wild weather Friday night.

You may have a decent chance this week due to the crappy weather we are having.
