Situated on the northeast coast of Vancouver Island, and adjacent to the Broughton Archipelago in Port McNeill, @northislandmarina caters to yachts up to 285’. The marina also reflects the convenience of the community as a must-stop for mariners with its in-berth fueling system for its guests. No more pulling into a marina and jockeying for position on the fuel dock before settling after a long day cruising. Just pull into berth with the helpful staff to catch your lines, schedule your fueling for the next day and head right into happy hour. The marina also has its own chandlery and laundromat located right at the head of the dock. Designed with service in mind, North Island Marina and Port McNeill are one of the most convenient stops along the inside passage and “the Gateway to the Broughton Archipelago.”

I`m hungry and I cannot get back on my boat! The Tidal variation is only two meters, but I leave enough slack in the lines to accommodate fluctuations. Which is fine, except when the winds pick up when I go shopping for supper. It is also high tide, so the mooring lines are slackest. Not complaining, though. I consider it twenty minutes well spent from an exercise point of view. It helped work up an appetite.
