960.0. "Beverly Harbor" by ABE::HASKELL () Thu Aug 25 1988 15:16

    Does anyone have any information on moorings in Beverly Harbor?
    
    1.	Availability?
    2.	Costs
    3. Length of waiting list?
    
    I'm in Danversport right now with a small Downeast crusie (I just
    sold it) and I need a place for a Pearson 30 Coaster for next year.
    My new boat has a draft of 4 foot 7 inches.
    
    Any information would be appreciated.
    
    Salem Harbor would also be considered.
    
    Thanks

960.1Salem has someNETMAN::CARTERThu Aug 25 1988 15:305
    Moorings are available in Salem Harbor.  I know Darbie Landing (phone
    745-3061) had plenty of moorings available.  For a 30 footer you're
    talking about $600 for the Summer season.  Pickering Wharf seems
    to share the same mooring area, they have a launch service.

    Jubilee YC has about a 5-year waiting list for membership.  If you plan
    to be in the area for a while you might want to put your name on the
    list and take a mooring in Salem Harbor temporarily.
    
    Jubilee is what I call a "working person's yacht club".  No yachting
    snobs.  Their current rates are around $350/year plus a 20 hour work
    assessment (i.e. helping get the docks in or some other "maintenance"
    function around the club).
    
    I've also heard that there is mooring space available in Salem Harbor. 
    There's a launch service over off of West Shore Drive that services the
    area.
    
    Good luck ...

960.3Salem WillowsHAVOC::GREENFri Aug 26 1988 14:0920
    Salem Willows YC is at the mouth of the Danvers, near the beginning
    of the channel.  There is typically a short wait list, but mooring
    space is getting filled.  There may be a moratorium on new members
    this year as a result.
    
    Club offers:
    	Launch service
    	Kitchen 
    	Heads and shower
    	Parking
    	Growing social calendar and informal racing
    	no bar or meal service
    	low dues ($120/yr+-) plus 10 hours work
    	growing sail membership
    
    Contact Wil Dobbins, membership chair.  I think he lives in Woburn
    and will get a phone number.

    For a mooring in Salem Harbor call the Harbormasters:  Salem or
    Marblehead, depending which side of the harabor you wish to be on.
     There os a launch service available for either side.  The Harbormaster
    will also tell you whether a mooring has been abandoned, and where
    you must place one if you decide to buy one.  If the Harbormaster's
    phone is not listed, call the appropriate police dept. and ask them
    for the number.  I spent 10 years on the Marblehead side of the
    harbor.  
    
    Good sailing to a safe harbor.
