 grandmaR Says:  Slip rental was reported to be $1.30/ft for transients. I have not been here. They have on site repairs, and one of the boats traveling north with us had a problem and they went in here to have it fixed. They have a 60 Ton Travel Lift owned & operated by marina and they do... 

 grandmaR Says:  Fishing is a big business in Morehead City. In addition to various kinds of fishing charters there are many tournaments in the area. This one may have been the Friendly City Speckled Trout Tournament (which is actually out of Swansboro), or the Toys for Tots King Mackerel...
