Beaufort NC. Homer Smith Marina

96 miles, a big trip for most Looper boats, but much of it was at 25-27 MPH in long straight waterways with few no wake zones. We concur with the uniformly good WWG ratings for this marina with attentive staff, wide, newer floating docks in a protected basin. Free bulk ice! Spotless, air conditioned bath house.
