A BIG Thank you to all the staff at DuSable Harbor Marina, who were friendly and professional. Special thanks to Shaun, Manager and Megan, office staff for your assistance and smiles.

We tied up to the wall at $1.50/foot/day, with easy access for the many family and friends we had aboard, as well as all the visitors we had over a week of wedding festivities. We were able to string our hose pipes for water, and we used our generator for electricity - as firstly there is no power available on the wall, and secondly we cannot use the US 110V the marina supplies.
