Cap Sante Marine is located on Puget Sound’s Fidalgo Bay in Anacortes. It had been operated as a boat yard and marina support area since 1959. In the early 1980s, fuel was observed seeping from an underground storage tank (UST) into the waters of Fidalgo Bay. Fuel was recovered and the seepage was stopped. In 1985, the Port replaced the then-existing USTs with new tanks; however, impacted soils linked to the prior petroleum leakage were not removed.
The marina has 1,150 slips for boats from 17 to 100 feet LOA, with the average vessel at 36 feet. The marina operates year-round as both a home port and a major destination harbor. Two pumpouts, four restrooms/showers, and two laundromats are available in the marina. The U.S. Coast Guard has a dock and office in the marina. Another section of the marina provides moorage for up to 150 commercial fishing boats.
Next to the municipal marina is the commercial boatyard, Cap Sante Marine, Ltd., which leases land from the Port of Anacortes. The yard has full boat repairs, hauling, storage, boat sales, engine warranty work, and ship's store available.
Within a 2-mile radius are 4 other marina facilities, all serving almost 3,000 boats in the area. The Boat Haven was started in 1926 as a fishing moorage facility in a light commercial ship building and fishing port. The current marina was ex-panded by 500 slips and upgraded in 1984. Cap Sante Marina initiated its comprehensive recycling program in 1991. As part of an aggressive community program, the marina collects and recycles cans, glass, paper, waste oil, antifreeze, cardboard, plastic, wood, and flashlight batteries-all free to customers. In the commercial fishing section, recycling also includes fishnet and bulk metals.
