First the good news....this is a beautiful and generally well protected harbor. The bad news is that you need to know that you can't bring your dinghy to Dutch Harbor Boat Yard's dock. Something that wasn't explained ahead of time. There is a town dinghy dock next door that has a 30 minute limit and is generally inhabited by dozens of teenagers behaving like.......teenagers, need I say more? After some "discussion" with the management of Dutch Harbor Boat Yard, they agreed to let us tie up our dinghy. Don't count on that happening especially when it get busy. They do have what appears to be a fairly efficient launch service, if that works for you. We stayed there based on the recommendations of two other boaters based on their experiences with the previous owners. If you're looking for white sandy beaches on Jamestown forget it, they only have one and it's for town residents only. It wasn't a terrible experience but it wasn't Block Island either. Next time we'll spend the extra money for fuel and go back to Block Island. ~Mark
