  • Marina Review for Morningstar Marinas Mayport

    We stayed 2 nights (their maximum); however, we were approved for a 3rd night because our dock wasn't ready. As things turned out we only needed 2 nights. (We were given a full refund without any questions).
    The staff is very friendly & helpful.
    The dock we were given was the inside of the fuel dock (easy in & easy out).
    The current is fast moving so make sure that your lines are good & ready.
    Good food is close by.

    The staff was GREAT, we arrived after hours, overnight docking on a "T" made it very easy.
    Very convenient off the ICW, parking lot was big.
    Power & water were easy to hookup.

    This is a terrific DYI yard if you want to do your own work. Rocky & Kevin are patient and helpful with your needs. The yard is expanding this year & more the next 2 years. Rhonda & her crew are GREAT with fiberglass work & painting. A lot of folks stay aboard in the boat yard. We used TRANSAS I Sailor to come up the creek and had no problem but I'd plan on coming in with the tide if you have over 5 feet. We didn't have any issues getting into the travel lift, the approach was easy plenty of water to turn our boat around with a LOA of 63 feet. Rocky is terrific he will give you a 10% discount for cash & paying ahead.
    Have NO FEAR the best DYI yard is right here!
