    Great anchorage if you know the waters. You can walk your pet at low tide. (Dispose of it properly!) Fresh water for great swims. We raise the keel on our Southerly to get back into the 5-6 foot depths. Our favorite anchorage on the northern bay.

    From the South Anchorage - Water taxi or dinghy access to city dock and the heart of historic downtown Annapolis with lots to do. Very busy harbor in the summer, but a great place to visit for a day or longer. Deep water with good holding. No wind protection from some directions.

  • Marina Review for Smith's Marina Inc.

    We refuel here often over summer and used to winter on the hard here every winter. Friendly service and they have a great mechanic. Recently renovated facilities in great shape and clean. Can take a 6 foot draft, but pay attention to markers entering creek. Surprised that earlier reviewer had a power issue. They are usually pretty good. Their store is pretty little light for provisioning and not convenient to other stores or marine parts.
