About


Plymouth Harbor has been welcoming guests for nearly 400 years, so it’s Plymouth Yacht Club’s pleasure to have you stay with us. As you may expect, there are a few rules and regulations about staying in the harbor, but the club is now happy to extend the option of booking your mooring reservation in advance, online.

To rent a mooring, there is a $65.00 per night fee includes the use of the club facilities (Top Side Bar, showers, laundry, launch service, etc.). Pump-out services are available 24/7 at the Harbor Master pier and boat-side on weekends. We can accommodate yachts up to 45 feet

Great for transients. Club is well run and the building is easy to access. The launch service is stellar: prompt, professional and very nice. Showers have hot water but the pressure was lower. Location is very close to town center, and and tourist stuff. The launch drivers even took us over to the town dock to show us where the fuel dock was located. We would definitely stay there again.

There should be a sixth Star to rate this Club. I called for availability prior to booking on Dockwa. Gary apologized that there were no moorings available for for that evening. While looking for an alternative, I received a phone call asking if I was the one that had called for a mooring as they received a cancellation. We were met by the launch driver who led us to our mooring. My wife was busy trying to choose a lunch spot on her phone and found the perfect spot. We called for a launch which promptly picked us up. As we were walking up the dock, she asked for directions and distance to the restaurant. We were given the information when the Launch operator said "Why don't I just take you on the Launch? With this king of welcome, we asked the Launch operator if he could check to see if they had the following night available. He confirmed us but said we would have to move to another mooring with a slightly cautious approach. As we returned to our mooring the launch operator showed us the approach to the new mooring and pointed it out. The next morning we advised that we were about to go to the next mooring. We were told to wait a few minutes because they were putting a pick-up buoy on the mooring for us. (Pretty helpful with a crew of three women in their 60's ad crew)! The facilities and bar were outstanding as well as numerous new friends we made during our stay. We would be honored to have them welcome us next summer to stay a few days!

We always love coming to Plymouth Yacht Club. I actually worked there when I was growing up and it feels like coming home. Everyone there is so friendly and inviting. I really cannot say enough nice things about the waterfront staff. Even though we are there only occasionally they all remember our names. Special thanks to Thomas and Gary (and Justin, though we did not see him during this visit). We will certainly be back!!

Stayed on a mooring and the launch staff was great. They showed us where our mooring ball was and ferried us to town right at the Mayflower ll dock as it was late in the day and we didn't want to miss touring the iconic vessel. The town is youthful and not just a tourist spot. Many restaurants nearby as well PYC offering food that evening. Great stay, thank you

Great experience. There are a couple of friendly launch drivers (though we used our dinghy) but good location. As a larger boat (right at the 45' cutoff) our mooring was right at the entrance, and it got a little rocky as some boats seem to struggle reading the "no wake" sign. But not their fault, so they earn 5 stars!

Wonderful Yacht Club in a wonderful harbor. PYC is ideally situated within walking distance to restaurants, shops & the Historic sites in town and a short Uber to the remote village site.

When we arrived in Plymouth and called the Plymouth YC dock, the dock master said they had no record of our booking and had no vacant moorings. Luckily the neighboring Safe Harbor Marina had a slip, was expensive of course, but we had no recourse. I visited the Plymouth Yacht Club later and spoke to the manager. Our booking came up right away on his computer. He apologized for the mistake and I have requested reimbursement of our mooring fee and our expenses at Safe Harbor Marina. I did not get an explanation as to how the booking is on his computer but not known at the dock.

Not sure what time at night they locked it but it is not available 24 hours a day. -2 stars.

We stopped at Plymouth Yacht Club on our way from Hingham to Marion. We stayed on a PYC mooring for one night and were very impressed by the hospitality of the club and its staff. It’s a beautiful location, and the club is located just a short distance from the heart of downtown Plymouth. PYC also seemed to be doing a great job requiring masks to be worn and implementing social distancing. We would definitely stay here again!

We have been going to Plymouth Yacht club for several years now. They are always very nice and accommodating. This year with the Pandemic I found everyone to follow the guidelines can be very concerned for one another's health. My only complaint has been that the transient moorings are right on the edge of the main channel coming in and 50% of the boats do not slow down at the breakwater where the "no wake marker is" It can make for a very bumpy day. Will still keep going back. Lovely place, great people.

PYC was awesome. Alert and friendly waterfront staff, welcoming members, great facility ( heads, showers, lawn, porch and bar). Harbor and moorings are safe and snug, although getting to the harbor from open water is a 4 mile winding path around peninsulas and sandbars. Watch the buoys and charts and mind the big power boats and commercial traffic that throw big wakes until you get to the inner harbor. Plymouth is what it is, but we found some great antique shops and excellent restaurants.

Staff was friendly, helpful and very area this would be a club I would belong to. Nice grounds. Moorings with slips for loading and staging a cruise only.

It was OK. The people at PYC were very good, but there was lots of confusion regarding rafting boats together. I think this is primarily driven by the harbormaster, but I found it very frustrating to get a straight answer. They said if we rafted and the winds picked up, we could be told to "un-raft". And that they were going to rent out the mooring I paid for if we rafted. So potentially we could have to untie in the middle of the night and have nowhere to go in windy conditions! Crazy! After a significant amount of back and forth, the agreed to keep our mooring open. Again, the mooring we already paid for!

PYC staff was very friendly, accommodating & tenders reliable/timely, however I had no idea swimming in the mooring field & hanging out on the floats was not allowed. Harbormaster monitors EVERY move and we gave them no reason to look out for us (we are quiet and respectful boaters). The only reason we got a mooring instead of a slip was to enjoy the cape waters so this was a HUGE disappointment and we won’t be back.

Plymouth Yacht Club could not have been nicer or more welcoming. However, Plymouth Harbor isn't suitable for a deeper draft sailboat. I draw 7.2 ft and communicated this via Dockwa for the reservation. However, at low tide, there isn't a mooring that can handle my boat. Had to leave a 5:00 AM to avoid sitting on the bottom at the mooring for a few hours.

Our visit to the yacht club was excellent. We were promptly met and escorted to our mooring and launch service was quick and easy. The showers were very clean and well maintained. We headed upstairs to the 3rd floor for a drink at the Yacht Club Bar. The members were quite friendly and we had lively conversation with several folks. The drinks were well made and at a great price. View from the 3rd floor balcony over the harbor is hard to beat on a great night.
