Gravesend & Northfleet extended they unbeaten run to 15 games with this excellent performance at struggling Morecambe.
Andy Ford's side fully deserved the victory against a Morecambe team who have yet to record a win in this years Conference.
The visitors beat Morecambe 6-0 towards the end of last season and looked confident of adding to that victory on this occasion.
They came close to opening the scoring on ten minutes when Jay Saunders saw an effort desperately cleared by the Morecambe defence and a minute later. Andy Drury was unlucky to see a curling free-kick dipped over the bar.
On 20 minutes Emmanuel Omoyinmi saw a shot blocked by Morecambe keeper Adam Sollitt as the visitors piled forward.
Ten minutes later they took a deserved league in fortunate circumstance when Drury's shot deflected perfectly for the unmarked Saunders to score from six yards out.
Morecambe came back with the dangerous Michael Twiss firing into the sidenetting and freeing David Perkins with a perfect pass which the young midfielder turned inches wide of the right-hand post.
Twiss looked dangerous at the start of the second half with a cross that landed on top of the goal and another ball which just missed the head of the on-rushing Wayne Curtis.
Then as Morecambe threatened to come back into the came they gifted Gravesend a second when Omoyinmi took advantage of some fatal hesitation between Sollitt and Iain Swan to score with ease.
To make matters worse for the home side, Gravesend added a third on 76 minutes when Saunders headed home Justin Skinner's free-kick.
Morecambe added a late consolation when Curtis finished from Gary Thompson's cross, but it was too little too late.
