    We have just had our boat on the hard at Cobb's Marina from 6/20 thru 7/30. Bottom soda blasted, 2 coats primer, 2 coats hard. Props re-pitched. New stern thruster prop. We found the paint cheaper than their price at West Marine, so we provided the paint. Installed new swim platform (we purchased from Butler Marine) and hardware. While there we also did some work ourselves. We thought the price was quite reasonable. We like the fact that it is a DIY yard. The place is owned and operated by the same family since 1958. Very congenial, competent, and caring staff. Highly recommend.

    Excellent service on a haul out for Cutlass Bearing replacement and leaky rudder correction. Very competent crew who can methodically solve the unexpected issues.

    Super friendly, helpful and accommodating! Heading south and we needed a couple of unexpected things taken care of. Within a couple of hours of our call, Cobb's fit us in for a short haul and the work was done before dark. Easy access transient docks in a quiet end of a big marina. We're very grateful for their service and professional care.

    Basic marina, with extensive repair services. Our purpose on visiting was to have a new hard top put on our boat. Amenities were very limited, but a few restaurants within walking distance.

    We have had our boat at Cobb's many times for service (hull painting, engine repair, mast repair), and you cannot find better or more helpful service.

    Very helpful staff. Nice docks, secure and safe. Walked a few blocks to a great local hangout/restaurant for seafood.

    Cobb's is a great marina - as Bill said, it is the best maintained marina in Little Creek - staff is very helpful. Store is small but we don't use it. One of the best restaurants in the area is a walking distance - also, East Beach Marine and a Food Lion are within walking distance.
