Gagetown Marina

Dec 21, 2016

About halfway between Fredericton and Saint John is the little village of Gagetown. Located on the west side of Gagetown Island, the Gagetown Marina has easy access floating docks with room for visitors. The marina also has that most sought after of amenities, the “dockside pub”; in this case it’s called the Old BootPub. A great spot for a lunch stop or overnight anchorage is located nearby at Grimross Island; this is popular spot where boats can put their bows on the beach.

The marina charges $35 for a mooring, dock space for boats under 25 feet is $40 and for larger boats it’s $50. Prices include tax.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
