    Bay Marine Yacht Harbor at Sturgeon Bay. The diesel on 8 June was $4.85/gal and ten cents off per gallon if USBoat member. Associated with Bay Marine headquartered in Chicago, this marina is immaculate. From this marina the City of Sturgeon Bay is a moderate walk over the Maple-Oregon bridge. In Sturgeon Bay there is a no wake zone from Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal Buoys 22/23 to the Bayview Bridge. The bridge operator who operates all three bridges is contacted on channel 16 (refer to signage on bridges). Each bridge has a gauge board, on my transit the Michigan bridge vertical clearance was 12ft, Maple-Oregon bridge vertical clearance was 24ft, and Bayview bridge vertical clearance was 47.5ft. Stayed one night.

    One of the nicest marinas I have been to on my five month trip. Very nice new docks, New marina office with very nice restrooms and showers, and a pool with a BYOB tiki bar! A few restaurants within walking distance, a bit of a hike to the main town on the other side of the river. I will definitely stay here again, very nice dock hands were here to help me tie up!

    The Yacht Harbor is now owned by Bay Marine. Many improvements have been made including new docks, clubhouse & pool. Very attentive staff. Sturgeon Bay Yacht Club is next door and is a very friendly club. A few restaurants and shops are a few blocks away. Downtown Sturgeon Bay is a hike, but a good one. Definitely a great choice on the protected Sturgeon Bay ship canal.

    Stayed here right after Labor Day. The staff was very attentive and working on lots of improvements. It is a hike to town, but the Yacht Club is next door.
