T&T: Newport Harbor, CA

[David&Joan]

J.

I live in Newport Beach and keep a trawler about 20 miles north in Long 
Beach. Newport has a designated anchorage just south of Lido Island on your 
charts. It is defined by five bouys in a trapezoidal shape. In December you 
will have no problem finding a spot. I was there last weekend and although a 
bit tight (there was a Fleming rendevouz going on) there was room.

If you want a mooring, call Newport Beach Harbor Patrol as you enter the 
harbor. They can usually find you one.

Transient (or permanent for that matter) slips are outrageous.
