The Town of New Shoreham now requires vessels on transient or private moorings, in the anchorage or on the Town Dock for two weeks or more, to provide the Harbors Department with valid registration or documentation as well as current insurance. Insurance needs to cover, at minimum, liability should vessel need to be removed from the waters of Block Island.
All required information can be emailed to hstewart@newshorehamri.gov or dropped off at our office.
If not in compliance after 10 days of notification, you will be found in violation, fines incurred and you will be advised to leave the waters of Block Island.
