4th on Flagler, West Palm Beach Florida - The Hull Truth

Has anyone been to this by boat? Looking to go this year and anchor in the ICW near the North stage at Flagler and Lakeview. May possibly use the city docks if space permits, but think I would rather just anchor. I checked the USCG Notice to Mariners and don't see anything listed as far as being closed, but does anyone know what areas will be closed? Is it west of the channel near the Royal Ponciana where the fireworks are shot off? I'm not concerned about traffic as I have a transient slip reserved for the 3rd and 4th at Lake Park Marina just a few miles away. I plan on being on the the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th and didn't want to fight at the ramp each day.

Anyway - any tips or advice would be appreciated.

i havent heard if the public docks can be used as they may be too close to the barge/s, but you can definately park between the 2 bridges...always a great time.

I was wondering the same thing about the City Docks. I assumed they would be shut down. I know they were shut down during sunfest.

From the 4th on Flagler website - the docks will be available, but no movement from 7 - 10 pm.

Like every other boat related entity in Palm Beach County, I am sure those docks will be full bright and early. I am more than likely going back into drydock as soon as the boat is back from some work I am having done to it. I guess I am going to call around and see what Marina will give me the best 3 month cash price....
