Navigational Aids/Course

From the “G-15” at Lloyd’s Point, follow the buoys to the “G-1” then the “G-3” and into Oyster Bay Harbor. Continue south following the eastern main channel, (south of Moses Point) which provides skippers with thirteen (13) feet at mean low tide, then head west. The dock at OBMC is easily identified by the large VALVTECT Fuel sign, where we supply both gas and diesel fuel. There is twenty-two (22) feet of water dockside at mean low tide, and we can accommodate boats up to 160 feet in length.
