Last September we cruised down the Champlain Canal we had intended to stay at the Lock 12 Marina on the way down and the Whitehall Marina on the way back. We pulled into the service dock at the Lock 12 Marina and waited. I wandered all around the place for half an hour without finding anybody. Called across to the Whithall Marina for a slip. They were full up but let us stay at the service dock for the night. Nicest folks you would ever want to meet. There is a dock/wall just on the South side of Lock 12 that is provided by the city of Whitehall. Free dockage/power/water/etc.
I have never stayed at the Westport Marina but some friends were there last week on their way through and I heard no complaints.
Burlington is tough. There are a few transient slips and a few more transient moorings. You may be able to get a slip at the Burlington Community Boathouse http://www.enjoyburlington.com/Waterfront/DockSpace.cfm . I would recommend calling ahead. The closest full service marina is the Shelburne Shipyard http://www.shelburneshipyard.com/ just a few miles South. We keep Serenity in Shelburne Bay next to the shipyard.
Let me know if you need anything else...
See ya on the water,
Frank
