We often look to reviews and comments from the community to help us make decisions on what to buy and where to go. At Waterway Guide Media we receive thousands of reviews each year from dedicated boaters and adventurers who alert us to good and bad experiences, and important information discovered during their travels.

Waterway Guide reviews are distinctive because we always check for facts, confirm that comments are authentic, and then send them along to any facilities being reviewed so they can respond if needed. Only then are comments or reviews posted in our apps and online portals. No fake critiques here and no hostilities allowed.

Comment on a Waterway Guide Newsletter story on 2024 Florida anchoring issue

"Thanks much for the excellent recap or history of the anchoring debate in FL. Seems that once again Abandoned and Derelict Vessels (ADV) are casting their ugly shadow over responsible boat owners. Hopefully more reasonable minds will prevail." James

Waterway Guide review for Safe Harbor Pier 77 Marina

"We kept our vessel here for more than a year.  Facilities are top notch, and the staff is very helpful.  Compass Hotel adjacent to Marina is a plus as well." Kevin

Waterway Guide review for Green Cove Springs City Pier

"Dock is ok for smaller boats. It's far enough away from shore to be exposed even in a strong west wind.  Nice city park with spring that feeds a public pool (closed November through May per a local).  Spring Park Coffee shop was perfect." David

"The Florida Keys is a fantastic cruising ground offering many protected anchorages. Anchorages on the Bay Side generally have shallower access but better protection. There are lots of Bay Side anchorages in the Upper Keys but very few west of the Seven Mile Bridge. On the Ocean Side anchorages tend to be more rolly. Some of the anchorages with the best protection lie in the streams between the keys. When possible, anchor in a spot that is protected by a causeway to get out of the current; tidal currents in these streams can exceed 3 knots in some spots. The anchorage at Bahia Honda requires particular care. When the weather is experiencing some rapid changes - anchoring near either the Channel 5 Bridge or the Seven Mile Bridge is a good idea; here you can switch sides with ease to escape heavy seas, if need be." Mark

Waterway Guide review for Delray Beach City Marina

"Frustrating!  The Pump-out is a self-serve machine that didn't work but "ate-up" $7.50 having tried to get it to work three times." Mark    Response from the Marina: "Good afternoon, sorry that you're having trouble with the pump out. What is the date and name on the card you used so I can check and see if you were charged."

"For years I renewed Documentation as a professional Captain, and I fell for it.  It was a ".us" online group not ".gov".  Only after I did the transaction did I realize my mistake." Frederic
