ARSBC was an excellent host. We were delivering a boat from Maine and the marina accepted us expeditiously.

Definitely a safe and secure place to stay far up. Everyone was friendly. however, nobody answered the phone when I called from the bay (330pm Friday) and nobody answered the radio when I hailed from inside the hurricane barrier (5pm). Fortunately SeaTow answered my questions (I received a reservation confirmation via email that I did not see until after I was docked). Harbor was busy on a summer weekend, including loud party music on Saturday night (not on ARSB property). Fortunately friendly club members helped with important info like the gate code. Convenient and inexpensive.

The ARSBC is a wonderfully friendly place. We had a number of repairs to get done on our new to us boat and found lots of resources in the area with great help from the boaters here. Highly recommend if you need a place to get some work done or just enjoy New Bedford and Fairhaven

The staff and members were all very friendly, helpful and hospitable. Didn’t use the facilities so can’t comment. Docks, power, water all in good condition.
