- Description:
Gilligan's Pier (301-259-4514) and Captain Billy's Crabhouse (301-932-4323) are great places to stop for lunch as you head upriver on the Potomac. Slips are available for dining guests, and Captain Billy's may be able to offer overnight dockage with minimal electric service. Boats drawing more than 4 feet should ask for water depth information at the docks. In season, Gilligan's runs a water taxi to anchored boats.
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
