Oak Bluffs Info

[Ductboy]

We have been to Edgartown several times in the past and were thinking of heading to Oak Bluffs this year. I was curious if anyone has ever gotten a slip at the East Chop Yacht Club? My wife and son like that it looks like it's right on a beach, I liked that it's not right in town.

We belong to two yacht clubs and I was hoping for some possible reciprocation.

I'd be a bit surprised if they did that, as I doubt they are set up for it and believe their slips likely have long waiting lists of members.
That said , can't hurt a bit to give the ECBC/YC a call or email . Maybe the commodore or manager knows of slip-leasing member headed for Westerly.

Note, if you were thinking of going there over the 4th , even the moorings will be rafted 4 boats if the wx is decent and town slips are likely previously reserved. It's a zoo. But people do cancel.

Sandy-

Thanks for the reply. We are planning for later in the summer, we plan on heading to Block for the 4th.

I have looked around their website before but didn't notice anything about reciprocity, which is typical among most, but not all clubs.

I thought it looked interesting, but if not, which of the in town marinas would you suggest?

Weather permitting, we'll be at Champlins on July 6th or 7th.
