    Julian and his wife were very friendly and food was very good Very friendly folks in town. Mooring ball is practically impossible to connect to because of surge as the line will be twisted around bottom of mooring ball. Surge will also make mooring ball press on hull and will foul if bridle is to long. Passing speed boats throw a big wake .I would pass on mooring ball and anchor next time. Mooring situation is a reflection on rating as it would have been a 4

    Steven the Dock Master was amazing. He's very knowledgeable and even washed the water marks and filled our fenders when we got fuel. Passed out leaflets with all kind of info. When we tied up on the fixed doc he was super helpful making sure we could set up our ramp to get our golden off the boat and took extra time setting up all the lines and fenders. And cracking jokes the whole time. we never encountered such a helpful friendly and funny dockside assistance Restaurant was very good along with the staff. And fun watching all the canal traffic. Definitely would come back.

    No diesel but good price for gasoline, casual active club with a galley and showers. Easy in and out of Long Island Sound.
