🚤 Update: Beaufort Town Docks
The Town of Beaufort and F3 Marina have worked collaboratively this week to address concerns and refine dock operations. We appreciate the significant feedback received from residents, boaters, and visitors, and we are making several positive adjustments:
• Local day docking will return to a process more consistent with past practice, making it easier to tie off, check in, and enjoy Beaufort. Cleats have been reinstalled along the seawall to improve accessibility and convenience.
• Short-term (up to 3 hours) docking will be allowed along bulkheads without the need to use Dockwa. Boaters will simply check in with the Dockmaster and provide contact information in case any issues arise.
• Insurance requirements will no longer apply to short-term dockage.
We also want to acknowledge the outpouring of community feedback. Strengthening communication and ensuring clear, consistent information moving forward is a priority for both the Town and F3 Marina.
These changes are intended to create a more user-friendly experience while continuing to balance the needs of residents, visitors, and the long-term success of our waterfront.
We appreciate your engagement and continued support as we move forward.
See you at the docks!⚓️
