Review for Hog Island
Reviewed by: John Tyrell on Jul 23, 2021
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 39'
Draft: 3.7'Overall Rating:3Holding:5Wind Protection:3Current Flow:4Wake Protection:2Scenic Beauty:4Ease of Shopping:1Shore Access:4Cell Service:4WiFi:1There are seven large white mooring balls with MMA stenciled on balls. They are operated by the Mass Maritime Academy and are presumably free (based on Active Captain Reviews). This review is for the mooring balls. We did not anchor so cannot comment on holding but there seems to be plenty of room to anchor. Just off channel. Easy in and out. No painters so it takes a little ingenuity to attach. We attached lines at the swim platform and then brought them to the bow. Don't seem to be heavily used. On a Thursday, we were the only overnight boat. One other boat tied up for a couple of hours and left. Pleasant location to wait for favorable current to transit east on the Cape Cod Canal.
