Eastport Marina is right next to Stoney Creek. There is also a great seafood restaurant/oyster bar next to Stoney Creek called Jonah's.

If I were you, I'd see if the Paradice Casino has any vacancys. Just a short blast down the road from East Port. You can either get a transient slip at EP, or just tie to the seawall overnight.

Eat in the Oyster Bar part. You can get either menu in either part. The Oyster Bar is nicer IMO. The ramp at Eastport is fine. There is also a public ramp next to Jonah's but I would avoid that with the river so low. Truth be told I would always avoid the public ramp! I used it once and that was enough for me.

I am doubting that the EP "private" ramp will work with his trailer. My buddy's 35 fountain trailer high centers on the private ramp, so he has to use the public ramp, or preferrably the Detweiller ramp. Hell even my 288 trailer drags some while putting in on the private ramp.
