I wanted to tell you about our stay at the Port Ludlow Marina using our SSSS reciprocal moorage benefit with the Port Ludlow Yacht Club. We were only there overnight on our way home from points north, but it was nice and we would stay longer in the future when we have more time.

The PLYC leases 80 feet of space on the inside of Breakwater A, which is basically the first spot you come to on the way into the marina. Turn in as if you are going to the fuel dock, then take an immediate left to their side tie space, with rub rail painted yellow.

They have a clubhouse on shore used for PLYC events. It is open Wednesdays and Saturdays from 1700 to 2000 and other times for scheduled events. As moorage customers, we were given the code to the marina showers. The WiFi is open, no code required, and the signal strength was very high. There is a small store in the marina office with books, charts, basic food, and an excellent selection of ice cream bars.

We were greeted at the dock by Past Commodore Peggy Kulm with a welcome kit comprising info about local attractions and hiking trails. Also a free bilge diaper. Peggy was happy we were there using their facility and invited us to a PLYC potluck the next evening, but we were pointed south and in a hurry to get home after a long summer cruise.

We would highly Port Ludlow Yacht Club reciprocal moorage to any Member heading that direction.
