We stayed at YCA Mar del Plata in November 2018 and were offered 2 days for free. The other days it was about USD 50 per day for our 14m boat. We understand there is some negotiating room, especially after asking a quote from Club Nautico.
The town is good for buying long lines for Patagonia (e.g at Jose Moscuzza, corner of Av. de los Trabajadores and Av. de los Pescadores). The more you buy, the larger the discount, so go together with other boats, if possible. To buy galvanised chain, go to La Esquina de los Cadenas y Poleas (corner of Moreno and Jara, taxi or bus 554). Gas bottle refill, many different kinds, incl. French, Dutch, US bottles: ferreteria on the corner of 12 de octubre and Rondeau. Laundry also available in that part of town, on the way from the marinas to 12 de octubre.
Before leaving, the prefectura checked our boat. They went over a large part of their list, but not all. Mostly safety equipment (including certificates and expiration dates), lights, bilge pump.
Dredging works are completed, there are now at least eight meters in the harbour mouth.

In the coming months: dredging the port access.
Passing vessels are released every three hours, prior call to Naval Prefecture (L2U)
