The only 100% safe zone on Martha’s Vineyard. 🚫🕷️⛵
If you know, you know. While everyone else is playing a high-stakes game of hide-and-seek with the tall grass, the trails, and the brush, the smartest people on the Island are already out on the water.
No brush. No checking your ankles. Just open water, salt air, and total freedom.
Go boating!

Nothing kicks off the season like the first tight line of the year. 🎣
Yesterday, one of our own team members headed out with a customer for an afternoon on the water, and the Striped Bass did not disappoint. It was the first “real” trip of the 2026 season, and seeing those first keepers come over the gunwale reminded us exactly why we spend all winter in the shop.
The Season is Here:
• The Run has Started: The bass are moving, and the action in the Sound is starting to heat up.
• Reliability Matters: Yesterday’s success wasn’t just luck; it was about a team that was 100% ready to go.
• Don’t Miss the Window: The spring run waits for no one.
Whether you’re chasing bass at Middle Ground or just looking for that first calm afternoon at the Hooter, now is the time to ensure your systems are dialed in.
At Martha’s Vineyard Shipyard, we don’t just service boats — we support the lifestyle that makes the Vineyard world-class. If you’re still on the stands, let’s get you in the water so you don’t miss the next bite.
Tight lines to everyone heading out this weekend! 🌊🐟

See & be seen. ⚓
Changing weather & visibility is just part of life on the water. Programming your AIS correctly ensures that you’re visible to the ferry long before they hear your horn.
Our team handles the technical setup—MMSI entry, vessel offsets, and system integration.
It’s one less thing for you to worry about when your on the water.

Mooring maintenance matters! We found this mooring ball (and chain) drifting in Nantucket sound. This mooring broke free because the chain wore down to nothing. Don’t have your boat delivered to mooring that hasn’t been inspected. #maintanancematters #moorings #workingwaterfront #mvshipyard
Another happy customer picking up their boat from our new off site, location, with easy access and plenty of room for maneuvering a trailer. We have space available, schedule your service, today! #boating #maintainancematters #mvshipyard
