Guide

Approach and anchoring

Lies on the Chester River side of Kent Narrows. The R. Clayton Mitchell highway bridge gives a fixed 65ft clearance over the centre channel; the Route 18 bascule bridge to the south clears 18ft closed and opens on the hour and half-hour, 6am to 9pm from May to October.

Practical

Around 75 berths, of which roughly 15 take transients, with capacity for vessels up to 100ft. The clubhouse has a restaurant and bar, a swimming pool and a hot tub. Transient stays are welcomed; the club also runs regattas through the season including the Kent Island Cup and Commodore's Cup.

Ashore

The Kent Narrows seafood houses are a short hop by tender or car. Cross-Island and South Island trails run nearby for walking and cycling on Kent Island.
