The EYC Marina is proud to be a certified Maryland Clean Marina. Our marina is one of the club’s best member amenities for water access and enjoyment. It provides a great view of both Severn River and entrance to Spa Creek, US Naval Academy and is home to members' cruising & racing sailboats, powerboats, and Race Committee support boats. The Marina docks and piers were rebuilt in May of 2006.
Eastport Yacht Club has been lauded by environmental groups for the implementation of new development methods to protect the delicate ecological balance that supports the Chesapeake Bay. This means we meet legal requirements and have voluntarily adopted pollution prevention practices at our marina in order to help improve the quality of Maryland’s waters. The EYC Environmental Committee has installed & monitors oyster reefs under docks to grow spat which also act as wave barrier, and monitors water quality.
The private basin provides well protected harbor for 47 wet slips with fresh water service and electricity. Depth at mean low water is 6 feet. There are 11 lift slips on C dock with 3000-8000lb capacity, 19 wet slips ranging from 30-42 feet on A dock, and 11 slips ranging from 20-20 feet on floating B dock. We also provide transient dockage to reciprocal Club members along outside bulkhead with electric and water access. Free Pump Out on end of C dock. There is also a 24-hour restroom with shower.
Our dry sail facility features a 2-ton crane self-use hoist in basin & self-use tractor (need waiver and training on both hoist and tractor use). We also have a large floating launching dock for dinghies, kayaks, paddleboards, providing easy access for our junior sailors. There is space for 30 dry sailed keelboats (<26’) and large staging/rigging area with fresh water & electric service, enabling EYC to easily handle large numbers of boats for major regattas. The entire facility is free of overhead wires. There are also dolly spots for Lasers and Racks (36) for kayaks, paddleboards, dinghies.

Sailors For The Sea GREEN Boater Tip of the Month:
Clean Your Boat with Items from the Kitchen By Shelly Brown
Cleaning products are necessary for dissolving and removing dirt, grime, allergens and germs. However, most cleaning products are not made to be directly released into our waterways. Ingredients in certain cleaners can damage fish tissuesor persistin the environment andenter the food chain.Some products also contain phosphorousandnitrogen,which can put excess nutrients into the water causing algal bloomswhich can be harmful to coral reefs and coastal ecosystems. Instead, many cleaning products are created to go through wastewater treatment facilities, where the majority of contaminants and chemicals are removed before the water goes back into rivers, lakes and the ocean. Being directly connected to our waterways, boaters can potentially have a negative impact on the local environment and wildlife when cleaning onboard.
Check out some simple steps and tricks to help minimize the impact of cleaning boats and boating activity items.
