Watch the tide level. Use care when moving your rig to launch area or leaving it on the beach while taking a break. Take left at river. Travel a short distance to seawall and launching ramp. Or follow Water St from downtown Newburyport along the river toward Plum Island till you see the Seawall on the left.
Limited parking is available in the small Seawall lot.
If full, unload your gear and park legally on nearby side streets. Suitable for beginners and intermediates. A relatively safe area for strong Easterlies when even advanced sailors find a challenge. Sailable for about 3-4 hours either side of high tide. Minimal tidal currents inside of mooring area and boat channel.
