Presume you have tried the two marinas here? Abell Point and Port of Airlie?

Hi Gezza,
There are only two mainland marinas around Airlie Beach these being Able Point Marina and the Port of Airlie. The Port of Airlie is basically a private marina but limited berths can be arranged hrough the onsite management office. Able Point Marina is by far busier and cruiser friendly marina. It is a very busy time up that way. They are not cheap but all services are available here.
I would also consider Makay Marina, they are cheaper and have a very good deal for cruisers. Its only a day sail up to Airlie but you have some great Island such as Goldsmith and Thomas Island only a couple of hours away.
Also Hamilton Island has long time berths which we have utilised and flown in and out when required. Hope this is of some assistance.
