Excellent launch and waterfront staff, very convenient mooring location

by John F. - Verified user on Jul 07, 2024

Very nice club facilities and helpful launch staff. Stiff currents in the river mean that the club's mooring field is located across the Piscataqua River from the clubhouse, on the Kittery side, in Pepperell Cove. The mooring field is easy to navigate and is well served by PYC launch service. If you're lucky you'll see Minke Whales in the mooring field, as we did.

Wonderful, safe, easy to pick up mooring. Immediate response on CH 78. Launch driver was quick and kind, but lacked local knowledge. We like when we can get info about dinghy docks, restaurants, etc. he answered “I don’t know” to every question!

Friendly staff, launch service is a big plus. Purchased gas at the Yacht Club next day - price is good, dock staff excellent.

The PYC is on a main channel in Portsmouth harbor, the 4a commercial boats send wake the knocks around boats on mooring. The staff was nice and dinghy dock was fine. Only detractor is the heavy traffic and tossing and turning.

We were confirmed for a mooring but after 2 emails and then calling the club we were finally given the mooring number. All other stops on our trip we always received a welcoming email with directions and all pertinent information like passwords facilities available and mooring number so when we arrived in an unfamiliar port we were well informed. Once we did call the woman was very polite just wasn't very forthcoming

Extremely friendly and helpful crew!

The kids working on this marina are 5 star plus. BUT the current on the mooring is insane. Very rolly and the. The fishing fleet comes out at 5 am rocked us with a huge wake. Go across to safe harbor better option

This Club is terrific ,,,,,,PYC accommodated our last minute reservation change , without an issue . We did not use any services on this stay , just an overnight mooring to stay ahead of weather. Definitely will be back.

Located on the Piscataqua River, Portsmouth Yacht Club was founded in 1898 in Portsmouth, NH, and moved to its present location in New Castle, NH, in 1938. Our facilities include a full kitchen, outdoor grills and refreshing showers as well as fuel for your vessel. The fuel dock is open 7 days a week in season and is available to all boaters. Our club members and staff will provide a welcoming atmosphere for visiting yachtsmen.

Transient moorings, located in front of the club as well as in Pepperrell Cove in Kittery, ME, are serviced by our launches that will bring you to the club or the Pepperrell Cove docks.

Although the clubhouse is open seasonally, the membership is active year-round. Our annual activities include club races and cruises, many social functions, weekly dinners in summer, as well as family events, all of which are always well attended.

As Commodore of Portsmouth Yacht Club it is my pleasure to extend an invitation to passing yachtsmen to visit our club and enjoy our hospitality.
