The yachting capital of the world: 165 miles of canals, the New River yards, and Port Everglades traffic mean more marine service demand per square mile than anywhere in America. Boats here spend their lives on the New River, Port Everglades, and 165 miles of canals, and local pros who know these docks, ramps, and marinas are worth finding once and keeping forever.
