Town of Marblehead Harbormaster

Tucker's Wharf does not offer traditional slips but instead provides linear floating docks, along with five guest moorings located in the inner harbor with a 40-foot maximum length. Exceptions include moorings H-3, H-50, and H-55, which are larger inner harbor moorings accommodating vessels up to 50 and 55 feet and are available for $100 per night. In addition, there are five outer harbor moorings at the harbor mouth with a 60-foot maximum length. The docks are equipped with 30/50 amp power and water, and guests have access to shower and laundry facilities, as well as a small galley featuring a coffee pod system, toaster oven, and microwave. Dinghy tie-up is included in the base mooring fee and is designated on reserved docks by a yellow cleat. The wharf is located within a short walk of Marblehead’s historic Old Town, restaurants, grocery and package stores, marine supply shops, and other unique retail establishments. Marblehead is considered one of the most picturesque harbors in the country and is widely known as the “Sailing Capital of the World” and the “Birthplace of the American Navy.” Please note that outer harbor moorings may experience rough conditions due to weather or boat traffic. Launch service is included with all moorings and is provided by Jordan Launch in the Main Harbor (VHF 71, 781-631-5992) and by Mid Harbor Launch in West Shore Harbor (VHF 69, 781-631-0611).
