The tow boat driver said he had towed many other boats that week, who had just filled at Narrows, and their boats also mysteriously died. Side Note: Marina staff is needlessly rude, nearly to the point of being violent. Some youngish man who claimed to have been the manager for 15 years (though he hardly looked old enough) was belligerent, and rude. Should in my face like he was trying to start a bar fight. I got out of there as fast as I could! My guess is they know there is something wrong with their fuel, and they are getting defensive about it. I can't warn you enough to stay away from this place...and if you read other reviews here are yelp, you'll see many one star reviews as well.

While the staff members are nice and proved to be fairly helpful, Scott the person who runs it is about as dishonest as they come. After being long time owners of a Boathouse, we were told that the boathouse was structurally unsound and that we must pay to have it rebuilt or paid to have it destroyed. We chose to move out of there and paid Scott to remove it. This was never done and he kept the money. He's great at making threats for financial gain.

I received notice from the marina office that "all of our fenders were failing and in need of replacement." Actually, one fender was under-inflated. When our boat became dirty, as happens over the winter, the marina asked us to use their preferred yacht detailing company - that company was impossible to get a hold of via phone; basically a sign-up now and cancel later company which, according to their website would have cost more than $1000. A simple hose and scrub brush took care of it. It's a noisy marina and water is rough due to ferry and other traffic.

The docks are a hodge podge of various older docks parts put together to make up the marina, but you get what you pay for, and the pricing reflects the state of the docks. We hope to be able to return in a few years once the dock renovations are completed.

New public dock in Bainbridge (formerly Winslow) provides affordable short-term moorage for…read morevisiting boaters, but has its hiccups... THE ROSES: Beautiful physical plant. The docks are new and in great condition. The facilities are well-maintained. There are usually volunteer dock helpers around to answer questions who are very nice. The dock features multiple free pump out stations. There is also a superb boat ramp and ample short-term dock space to park your boat while your parking your truck/trailer. Overnight moorage fees are very reasonable (50 cents/foot, $5 a day for power [30 and 50 amp]. There is a pay station that takes credit cards, so you don't have to fumble around for cash. The City Dock is a short walk away from downtown Bainbridge, which is to Seattle what Marin County is to San Franscisco: bursting to the seams with twee boutiques and expensive eateries. THE THORNS: The electrical power situation is frustrating. We couldn't get power because the main breaker was constantly tripping. I was told by one of the dock volunteers that their system was very unstable and had been giving them fits; fortunately we have a big house battery bank and a genset. It is also important to note that this marina is NOT secure; anyone can wander around at any time of the day or night. I wouldn't be concerned about this except for the presence of a really sketchy vagrant wandering around the area. Fortunately the dock volunteers are good about interacting with the folks and figuring out who belongs and who doesn't. Still, don't leave your $800 Steiner binoculars or iPad laying around for people to see. ROSE OR THORN, DEPENDING ON YOUR SITUATION: Bainbridge City Dock only allows a maximum of two nights moorage. On the plus side, this ensures lots of dock space turnover and no 'campers'. On the other hand, if you are looking to stay in the area for more than a couple of days, you'll have to alternate time on the City Dock with anchoring out in the harbor or looking for transient moorage at the much more expensive (but well-maintained and secure) Winslow Wharf Marina. THE VERDICT: Good facility in a protected harbor that offers short-term moorage at a giveaway price. Don't be in a position where you NEED power, though; you might not get it.

That is when I realized we would NOT be able to live up to the "no more than 14 nonconsecutive days on your boat" stipulation. We spend a lot of time on our boat especially in the summer so that would not have worked for us. Plus a substantial fine if not adhered to. I emailed the manager, Sheila, WITHIN 48 hours that we would have to cancel for that reason, only to find out our $560 deposit would not be refunded!!! Not even in part! I emailed her back stating that NOWHERE was this posted or made known which Sheila never even bothered to respond to. This is a policy most businesses adhere to as a common curtesy to customers. But not Shyster Sheila at the TYEE!!! And the marina is not even that nice...for sure. Barely adequate is about it with no shore facilities to offer.
