Cruising into Boothbay? Raise us on Channel 9.
Sou'wester sits at the head of one of the most sheltered harbors on the Maine coast. Hail us and we'll guide you in.
VHF Ch 9 · 43°50′N 69°38′W · 120 Atlantic Ave · 12 ft MLW
A clean, well-marked run into a protected harbor.
Boothbay Harbor opens to the south between the Cuckolds and Squirrel Island, an easy run in from the outer islands with a well-marked channel and deep water the whole way. We carry 12 feet at mean low water right up to the floats, so you won't be watching the depth sounder on the way in.
Once you're inside, call Sou'wester on VHF Channel 9. We'll assign your slip or mooring, give you a heading to the dock, and have someone there to catch your lines when you come alongside.
- Sheltered from nearly every direction
- Well-marked channel, deep water
