• Due to our unique configuration  Shangri-La is not handicap accessible. However, if you can comfortably do stairs you may find it easy to get around. Please call if you have questions.
• We are docked in the Beaufort Yacht Basin.  This marina is in a 'no wake' zone - so we do not often see much wave action.  However occasionally we'll get some movement of the boat. 
• Free parking is available at the marina
• Jan and Lee do live on-board.  We have our own private quarters in the bow.  You will have as much privacy as you wish.
• Airlines service New Bern, NC and Raleigh/Durham.  A cab ride from New Bern is around $50.  From RDU one would rent a car
• Please no pets
