Harbormaster

The Rockport Harbormasters oversee Rockorts four harbors: Rockport, Granite Pier, Pigeon Cove and White Wharf. There are over 360 vessels in these harbors one third of them are commercial fishing vessels and the other both power and sail are pleasure boats. The Rockport harbormasters are certified Massachusetts Harbormasters and EMT's all members of the Harbor Department are licenced Captains and first aid trained. Massachusetts Harbormasters enforce Mass General laws Chapter 90B and 102 . The Rockport Harbormasters are Mass Shellfish Constables and enforce the Massachusetts Shellfish laws. Our Department works closely with the United Stated Coast Guard, Environmental Police, U.S. Customs and other related agencies. Assiting the public, search and rescue along with community relations is a large part of the what a harbormaster does during the season. The active season runs between April and the end of October. The winter months are spent on catching up on paperwork and getting ready for the upcoming season.
