Equipment

When you manage and care for boats from simple dinghies to sailing and power vessels 60 feet or larger, you'd better have the tools on hand to do the job properly. Our equipment includes a new remote controlled 55-ton travel lift, an 18,000 lb. mobile boom truck crane, a 35-ton hydraulic trailer & truck plus a 5-ton hydraulic trailer and truck perfect for smaller outboard boats 17' to 30'.

Facilities

South Wharf Yacht Yard has recently undergone a major face-lift through a multi-million dollar remediation and investment program including the installation of a state-of-the-art pressure wash facility, new shops that have been retooled with new tools and equipment and main boat sheds that are now climate-controlled, allowing us to service your boat year-round.

One of the best yards I have experienced! I have been in the marine industry over 30 years and this is one of the cleanest and most helpful yards I have ever been to. We stayed for my sons Regatta and the dockmaster and her staff couldn't have been more helpful! Awesome place to stay.

Fantastic team and facilities. Super helpful and responsive. Docks and bathrooms first tier. Full service help available. And great restaurant on site too. Definitely returning.

This year will be our 3rd boating season at home in the Marina at South Wharf. My wife, our family, and I love spending our summers on board at South Wharf! The marina offers very easy boating access to most of our favorite destinations, the full service staff at South Wharf work very hard at lending a hand into our slip and keeping our boat on the water. The quaint, quiet, humble Village of Padanaram offers outstanding amenities all within walking distance of the marina. From the dock master to the marina owners' this is a first class operation. We are proud members of the South Wharf family.

Perhaps the best location in New England with easy access to everything from Cape Cod, the Islands and Newport. Dartmouth is MA’s best kept secret sea town. Good people, fast service and beautiful sunsets!
