What newer boaters should know
How we grade
Docking grades use the marina's measured layout, fairway room and historical prevailing wind. They are not today's weather forecast. Marina Quality uses the report's dock condition, amenities, setting and available value information. These are two separate scores, not customer star reviews. A specific slip and your own boat can make docking more or less demanding.
