Many of the docks are falling apart which represents a safety concern. The bathrooms and showers, although clean, had a lock on the main door that resulted in my wife getting stuck inside and me having to call fire and rescue to get her out. No night security number to call. Overall a poor experience.

The people were great and very helpful. The 24 hour showers available was a plus. I will definitely be back when we make it back that way. Only recommendation is to have more stuff available to purchase for repairs or items needed for breakdowns. There nothing in the area for boat items.

The staff is amazing… they are warm, friendly, professional, generous and skilled. We are new to sailing and we appreciate respect and professionalism… the staff here embody these values … they are service oriented and go out of their way to make your stay memorable, Charlie and Rob… you knocked it out of the park for us and we are truly grateful. If this is what you can do when short staffed it will be the envy of other marinas when fully staffed! Thank you.

Staff were great and went above and beyond to keep us happy. The slip was a little rolly due to being right next to the channel. Large ship traffic was an inconvenience but not horrible. Restrooms were clean and showers too. Wifi was not working but I expect it will be fixed.

Difficulty communicating with staff. Alarm went off all night and made it impossible to use facilities (toilets and showers). Laundry dryer was broken. The staff did not call me back in spite of calling multiples times, sending texts. That said, they gave me a refund for one night.

A Note from the Marina:
We would like to thank this boater for their feedback and apologize again for the inconvenience. Corrective action was taken and the alarm issue has been resolved. It was unfortunate that this happened and we can assure you it will not happen again. We would love to welcome this boater back to FGIM again in the future.

Personnel very nice and accommodating. The marina however is located directly across from where the river meets the ocean making your stay there extremely rough if the wind is off the ocean. What’s worse is that all of the slips are parallel to the river itself. No 5mph limit in this part of the river so every wave hits your boat broadside. Big freighter ships pass through all hours of the day and night. Your boat slams into the floating docks with force comparable to a 40 knot blow. At 3:30 in the morning, a freighter passed through sending everything in our cabinets flying. Even if the weather is bad, you and your boat would be safer on anchor.
