About The marina factory bay
Craig, the dockmaster, was wonderful to work with. Free laundry. Only 2 transient slips with a 5 night maximum, so not easy to get into. Great views and great restaurants and shops within walking distance. The Marina at Factory Bay, located in a well-protected deep water yacht basin on the beautiful Marco River, near the Judge Jolley Bridge.
