Bought a Catalina! Great staff and very helpful.
My husband and I just purchased Liberty, a 40 foot Catalina, from Chesapeake Yacht sales. Gordon was the broker. He kept us well informed throughout the process and was very helpful with his explanations on details such as haul outs, surveys, and coast guard documentation. Every staff member here was polite, professional, and knowledgeable. Tammy, in the office, was instrumental in helping us find a place to live, while we were working on our purchase. Many thanks to everyone here!
Bought a Vessel, Sold a Vessel in 5 Weeks!!!
Over a 5-week period the Spring of 2024, we purchased a boat and sold a boat within a 5-week period. We would like to thank DYC and specifically, Gordon Inge and the DYC staff for the professional services rendered over both transactions. All transactions in the purchase evolution were handled with care and professionalism. Gordon attended to all our questions with interest and care. The few occasions where Gordon could not answer the phone, he promptly phoned back.
Being on the buyer side, we had several inquiries which were handled exceptionally. Never once was a question or concerned met with dismissive manners and all were addressed to our satisfaction. With the purchase of our new vessel well underway, we proceeded with selling our previous vessel. I really had not expected the kind of care and consideration in the development of the listing. Photos were provided by us and used in the posting. Additional photos of the boat were professionally added with all configurations of salon fully staged. The listing was very impressive and totally unexpected.
All this to say, it is rare to find this level of quality in service. A skeptic going in as we are with most things, these transactions where buyer/seller interactions, equipment considerations, logistics, documentation, funds transfers, and personal preferences or considerations, were all attended to to our full satisfaction. They showed great consideration and appreciation for their customers. Well done Gordon and DYC Team.
Thank you again,
M&M
Before we even arrived at DYC they made arrangements for us to be hauled out asap to repair some issues we had coming up the ICW.
The facility is very accommodating and the staff is top notch.

Family friendly, Catalina dealer, my kids enjoyed the pool!
It’s not a business, it’s a family that has asked you to be a part of them.
Allison and I had the pleasure of working with Gordon Inge and the team at Chesapeake Yacht Sales/Deltalville Yachting Center in early January. Everyone at this facility treated us very well. We want to extend a special thank you to Gordon for making our boat purchase fun and stress free. Gordon went above and beyond the call of duty and continues to do so as we are now out of state.
Thank you, Jim and Allison S/V Aria

I have had a boat or two here for a long time. Lou and Ona Grimm could not be more nice and warm and helpful. Laura is always wonderful. The boatel staff has been very professional and kind. The facilities from the restrooms to the pool are always very clean and we’ll kept. The landscaping are very nice. I can remember 40 years ago how rundown it was before Jack Dozier built the boatel. The Grimm’s have taken that place and made a Best of the Bay!
It’s not a business, it’s a family that has asked you to be a part of them.
They have the best mechanics in Deltaville.

If you are looking to purchase a cruising-size boat, power or sail, I sincerely say to you, go see the folks at Chesapeake Yacht Sales & Deltaville Yachting Center. Do yourself that favor and smart move. You will save money and be working with a team of yacht professionals. I am not certain the words “outstanding” and “most highly recommended” do justice to the truly top-level, first-class treatment I experienced purchasing my Catalina 445 through CYS at DYC. That was 3-years ago now and they remain “my boatyard.” Had the boat on the hard there over the winter and just relaunched this past week.
From my first contact with the broker, Cori Williams, to accepting post-commissioning turnover from Lew Grimm (owner & manager) and their Master ABYC Technician who oversaw the commissioning work, it was a comfortable, no-pressure process best described as a partnership to get it not just right, but perfect. That is how it was, start to finish. Describing these folks as true professionals is not hype, just stating the fact.
DYC is an active boatyard and their team of ABYC technicians are second-to-none. I am now on a first-name basis with all the techs and staff members. They very courteously take all my question and concerns immediately. When they are busy with other customer work, they get back to me by the end of the day or schedule a time to work with me as needed. My trust in DYC has never let me down and has saved me money. These folks exemplify the Deltaville charm and old Virginia gentility. What a pleasure to work with these wonderful people.
We recently stayed at the Deltaville Yacht Club and had a fantastic experience. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and incredibly helpful, making our stay smooth and enjoyable. The marina’s dog-friendly policy is a huge perk for pet owners like us. We only wish we had more time to spend here. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great marina stay!
Deltaville Yachting Center is a great boat yard! The service is EXCELLENT and they bend over backwards to make sure their customers are taken care of.
Have done a great job of keeping an eye on our boat on the hard, keeping us posted and always get our questions answered.
I’ve had my boat at DYC since 2008. I’ve always had great service and been treated with respect despite sometimes asking for things at the last minute. They try to accommodate people like me as best they can! Love the owners and employees here. They make you feel like part of the family. Can’t recommend highly enough.
The customer service and care Onna, Lew and the staff at Deltaville Yachting Center is above and beyond what I ever anticipated. They are simply spectacular. They desire nothing more than to meet all of our needs and they do it with enthusiasm. We trust them with all of our service and care needs.
My husband and I just spent a night docked at the marina. What a fantastic place. Check in was easy. They had a welcome packet all ready for us. The pool was so clean and very refreshing. The bathrooms and showers were clean.Only suggestion is a small shelf in the showers to put eyeglasses, watch, etc on to stay dry. The best part was the use of a vehicle to go souvenir shopping, dinner, and buy ice. They were so accomodating. I recommend this marina to everyone!

I have used DYC multiple times for haul outs and bottom paintings, and I hope to continue to use it. The marina is organized and well run. The people are friendly and helpful. DYC has always treated me fairly and provided excellent service.

Awesome place and super friendly staff! Ricky is awesome, and get me all set up!
Excellent service à la clientèle de la part de tous les employés.
On y retrouve aussi tout ce qu’on a besoin.
Belle piscine également avec le club house qu’on peut utiliser : pratique quand on ne peut pas cuisiner dans le bateau pendant des réparations.
Great place for families to gather
Great place to park your boat with plenty of amenities for the family
Full service marina and boatyard with a friendly knowledgeable staff. Very clean and guest friendly. They also have a pool.
Excellent sales and service. We purchased a used powerboat from DYC last year. The broker, Gordon, was excellent in his knowledge of the boat for sale, boats in general, and the boat buying process. We had DYC perform additional work on the boat after purchase which was done expertly and for a reasonable cost. Gordon has been responsive to all our questions and a pleasure to work with. We had the opportunity to stay at the marina and experience the area which was very enjoyable. We look forward to visiting DYC again on future trips.
Lots to see and do
Wonderful place, very nice people.

I have been a boatel “resident” for the last 7 years at DYC, and I can’t say enough “good things” about this Marina and the way it is taken care of. It is lovely, clean, well organized and a joy to be a part of.Lew & Onna work hard and take great pride in this place! And I can’t say enough about the service I got this past spring when Gordon Inge worked on my boat with numerous major repairs that is inevitable for every boat owner eventually -manifolds/risers among other things. He was incredible! He kept me informed every step of the way. … and when there were options for me to consider he put those forth to me in a calm thorough manner. I couldn’t have been in better hands. Having to “swallow” any kind of work where “big money” is concerned is never easy for anyone, yet he was able to keep my nerves calm and keep my “fear level” at the lower end of the meter about what the final cost might be…and even came in a bit under. He is good with explaining things and you know that you are paying for a job well done because he is so knowledgeable. Nothing is “left in the dark”. When he told me I had a collapsed hose he was able to show me a picture of it. He slid a camera down the hose and there it was – in all its collapsed glory!…clear as could be. Nothing is left for you to doubt. He is the most incredible technician I have ever had the privilege of working with on getting me and my boat back on the water in a timely fashion!!! DYC is lucky to have him on board.

What a fabulous place! It is beautiful and quiet and clean. Super nice people and a car loaner if you need it. We are a small boat bound south. Excellent!!!
One of the best boat yards we’ve stayed in over the last eight years of living full time onboard. The staff could not be more helpful, technical advice is excellent, and jobs are managed and progressed as promised. The loan car was excellent to shop and do laundry in Deltaville. The only negative was inconsistent wifi coverage. We were delighted with the service, and would definitely stay again if the opportunity arose.

Nice place to be. You feel at home. Excellent hospitality. Always very kind and helpfull. Top, top, top.
Deltaville Yachting Center is very customer oriented. No matter how long the question or how many times I’ve asked the same one, they also respond in a friendly and timely fashion. Beautiful amenities include clubhouse, pool area, dog walking area, BBQ area, a separate bathhouse and more! I went in looking for slip and service work pricing and got all the answers I needed and it made me rent a annual slip from them! Great people.
Clean and very friendly
Great place to get quality work done and the people are beyond accommodating A+ service and very reasonable pricing

Enjoyed working with Gordan.
Great service and honest opinions. They went out of their way during a busy stretch to assist my stranded boat at another location.
Awesome place and super friendly staff! Ricky is awesome, and get me all set up!
Our best boat yard experience in 5 years of cruising. Knowledgeable staff, everything on schedule, great discounts on paint… Even a loaner car! All of that at unbeatable prices.

I have used several different marinas in Deltaville for service and think I have now found the one I will plan to use in the future. They were so responsive to my service requests, always got back to me right away. Service was completed on schedule and the job was completed perfectly. I cannot say how impressed I am with their service. I am so happy to have found them!

I purchased a boat from here and the staff was all professional personable and polite. They seemed like they liked their jobs and were helpful as can be expected. Gordon was my broker and he answered every question I had without any hesitation. They did everything that they could to accommodate me and I highly recommend them to anyone in the Chesapeake area that is looking for quality boats and good service.

This is our second haul-out with DYC. We appreciated greatly the entire DYC Staff and their willingness to support boat owners with their periodic maintenance needs. Laura, Mike, Clint, Steven, Dillan, James, Alex, Charlie, Tammy, the entire crew, helped to make our haul out this cycle a complete success. Lastly, thanks to Gordon for the impromptu True North 34 boat tour. Thanks again to everyone at DYC – Setting high standards for Best-in-Class Service!!!

This yacht center is by far the best on the Chesapeake. Possibly the world. Down home service, with professional results that can’t be beat! I’ve been struggling with my sailboat for a while and when I’ve got questions, their service team is there with the answers and parts I’m looking for. If you go anywhere else but here for your boating needs, you are just wasting your time.

Good deals on boats and docking ..they also offer safe boating classes too !!
We want to thank Gordon Inge for assisting us with the purchase of our Mainship 30. Gordon was extremely professional, knowledgeable and patient from the time he initially showed us the boat until the time we took the delivery. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with the systems and was always available to help us and answer our many questions.
We wanted to have some work done on our boat before we sailed her back to Chestertown and Laura Powell was the person we dealt with. She too was extremely pleasant and always responded to our requests in a timely manner and kept us continuously informed of the progress. Mike was the technician who worked on our boat and was also outstanding. He was very conscientious and knowledgeable and very thorough on all of the work we had done.
DYC is an excellent marina on all levels, from brokerage to maintenance. If we could, we would bring our boat to DYC every year to have serviced due to the excellent quality that DYC provides.
