It has been a nightmare. Brand new Beneteau Antares 11 with several problems. Persitent and unresolved overhead leaks when it rains, engine problems on brand new Merc 300's, late, late delivery, missing items on delivery, some poor workmaship on several components - some major, some minor (capstain loose, cabinets misaligned, privacy curtais fell to the floor on the very first use, only delivered with one set of keys for twin motors, even the wrong size toilet seat installed). Some of the problems were clearly Soth Wharf issue, some were Beneteau quality control. Happy to discuss with anyone who contacts me

Unless you have a multi -million dollar yacht they won't pay any attention to you- Buyer beware - owner is horrible !! Never buy a used boat here

Great staff. Beautiful location, perfect if you want to visit Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket or even cuttyhunk. Padanaram harbor is a great quiet place to boat

Photo of Buell H.

I have kept my boat there for the last two winters and I can report that they do an excellent job. They had the misfortune of taking over right after the legendary Concordia company left -- a tough act to follow. The first couple of years were a little rocky, but they have since hired some really good people. All work done on my Cape Dory 300 motorsailor, has been competent and reasonably priced, and I would recommend them to anyone.

A place with great potential but management needs improvement. Service quality is limited. Coolant never put into engines, hoses crimped and little attention to detail. Beautiful spot in a great little village but little regard to the needs of the boaters. Staff is always changing and work is never on time. If you do your own work its great or are buying one of their boats. Very sad as it is a special location. Major interest is in charging upfront and not delivering. No one balks at paying when you own a big boat. The issue is paying and then finding that work is not done. This is pretty scary when you are out at sea with potential problems that can be life threatening. Priorities need to be adjusted ASAP to retain clientele and to bring this place forward as a treasured stop for transients and seasonal boaters.

An inside look at the south wharf yacht yard.

Post by Team Dockwa - Published on 06/22/15 14:30 PM

south wharf yacht yard

Day trips are made easy because of the centralized location of the marina. There is no excuse for not taking the boat out for its daily adventure with Boston just 1 hour away and the Cape, Newport and Providence 30 minutes away. Not only is South Wharf Yacht Yard a marina, but it is also a certified service center that offers repairs and customization as well as many other services.

After a long day on the unforgiving ocean, a shower can really make the difference in starting to feel human again. Luckily, the South Wharf Yacht Yard offers upscale residential style shower facilities. Afterwards, enjoy yourself at the wonderful on-site restaurant and waterfront bar. The South Wharf Yacht Yard is full-service yard and marina, and is staffed with friendly and helpful professionals who are available to help you at any point along the way.

While you’re in town, consider renting a kayak or bike and exploring the breathtaking Dartmouth coastline. We recommend strolling over the bridge to The Bucket at Gulf Hill for their famous lobster rolls. For those making extended stays, there are many bed and breakfasts and house rentals awaiting your arrival!

Make your next trip to South Dartmouth even easier by consulting  the Dockwa app . The one-tap dock and mooring reservation system!
