B.E.S.T. Boatyard is a new dry boat storage facility, and a true full or self-service boatyard for all vessels. You, or anyone of your choice, can work in our yard, on your boat, without additional fees. There are also rental self-storage units, workshops, and buildings that 50' restoration projects will fit into. As a do-it-yourself storage and maintenance yard, we're open six days a week. Long term projects and wooden boats are welcomed here.
B.E.S.T. Boatyard is located approximately one mile downstream of Urbanna, Virginia, on the southern bank of the Rappahannock River, just off of Buoy #6. The channel to our dock is marked by privately owned red and green buoys. At high tide, there's five feet of water all the way in.
We're approximately twenty minutes from the Chesapeake Bay and Deltaville. There's a quarter mile of white sandy beach for your recreation and over one hundred high and dry acres, which makes us the largest boatyard in the state.
We currently have a 30 ton Marine Travelift and a brand new Wiggins Marina Bull lift that will handle 36' foot boats with ease. Our new 140 boat boatel building is open for storage. Bait and ethanol-free gas are also available for purchase.
Office winter hours are 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM daily, except closed on Tuesdays. From April 1, summer office hours are 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM daily, except closed on Tuesdays.
