🧭 Captain’s Marina Notes

🧭 Captain’s Assessment

The Customs Office on site sets this marina apart for US-flagged vessels. Western end of the North Channel route — the next stop heading east is Little Current. Village of Meldrum Bay is very small — basic provisions only. Fuel here before heading east into the channel.

⛽ Fuel & Provisioning

Gas and diesel confirmed. Top up here — next reliable fuel heading east is Little Current (Spider Bay Marina or town fuel dock).
