Please contact Jim Knape at (nine zero six) 228 5583 or email knapejim(at)aol.com if you would like to house some of your crew in private homes. We have about 20 to 25 open slots

Important Information

Dockage
Its recommended you dock along the Mattson Park Wall at the NW corner of the Harbor adjacent to MYC.  Make sure to have good fenders as its a concrete wall and there can be surge. You could also dock at the Cinder Pond Marina which has better protection but it is more expensive and has a limited number of slips so reservations are wise. Dockage fees are the responsibility of each yacht.

Parking
If you will be bringing a car please make sure it is parked in a proper spot. Some of the local parking lots have a 2 hour limit and no overnight is allowed.  If you need to park overnight let us know and we can find a good spot or get a permit from the city.
