Town of Frye Island Moorings Ordinance

Note:  The Frye Island Harbormaster oversees all private moorings located within 200' of Frye Island shoreline.  Click here for information on Marina Slips and Town Mooring Field  managed by the Town Office.  

2026 Permit Renewals

Residents with EXISTING private mooring permits on record from 2024 will be emailed a link for renewal applications on the Online Mooring platform in early April from alerts [at] onlinemooring.com (alerts[at]onlinemooring[dot]com).  Please note that all private mooring owners will be required to review and submit the application information in the new system for each renewal to confirm accuracy.  Instructions for how to process your renewal are included in the email.

- The deadline for payment of fees is May 6th. 

- The Excom has established a $200 fine for any existing moorings that remain unregistered/unpaid by May 24th

Each registered mooring will be issued a 2026 permit tag to be picked up at the office for attachment to the mooring buoy.  Tags will be issued only after payment is received.  If you have any questions or need help completing the online payment please contact harbormaster [at] fryeislandtown.org (harbormaster[at]fryeislandtown[dot]org).  We are happy to help.

New applications 

New applications will not begin being processed until May and therefore are not subject to the payment deadlines for renewals.  An application is subject to approval by the harbormaster.   Payment will be required before the mooring tag is issued.  

Waterfront owners should select "shorefront" as the mooring location if they wish to place a mooring in this zone.  For public access locations, please choose from the remaining options.  Please note, certain locations are full (such as Beach 6), but you may select multiple choices and the harbormaster is happy to work with you to find the best option or wait-list desired.
