Don't forget the Welcome Center on the Dismal Swamp. Also, there used to be
a free dock at Bath and I don't remember paying anything at the Ocracoke
Dock.

Al,
The list of free docks on the ICW from Miami to Norfolk is a
short one. Stuart,FL has a city dock, but recently changed the
rules to allow only a 4 hr stay. Cocoa has a free dock, but we
haven't stayed there. New Smyrna Beach's dock says no overnight
stay; but we've stayed there twice for one night with no
hassles. Barefoot Landing in Myrtle Beach, SC has a great dock
next to a tourist mall with room for 10 boats, and allows a
three day stay. We've heard that Southport, NC has a tiny free
dock, but haven't tried it. Washington, NC has a lovely free
dock for about 8 boats, with free electric, but it's 30 miles
off the ICW up the Pamlico River. Oriental, NC has a nice small
dock for 2-3 boats, usually crowded. That's all I can think of.
