The basin is weather protected and offers an 80ft. main float with two 60ft finger floats for smaller vessels. Docking here is available for vessels up to 5ft draft. This facility has recently been fortified with steel pilings, shore power, security gate and safety lighting.

This structure caters to the needs of students, staff, faculty, Marine Operations customers and people taking a walk along the Harbor walk.
