Update Thurs 10/26: We arrived at Portsmouth Tidewater Marina around 4:15. We chose a marina partly because we had a boat part shipped to a friend there that could deliver it. We didn't want to risk arriving too late to safely find a dock to meet at if we anchored. So the "luxury" choice it was, though not very expensive at all. We were met by two dockhands and we fit in the slip F-10 well with a side pier to tie to.

 We had a bite and sip at "Fish and Slips" bar and restaurant,

 then did some ICW research using the marina's wi-fi. The marina is very neat and I like that they have tidy garbage and recycling cans in several docks. Our part was delivered cheerfully and we were truly happy.
