Easy slips and staff was amazing. Later at night was very quiet and had a nice one hour conversation with the parking guard. Very nice gentleman

Tigger…Flying Tiger…..& Tiger have been at the NYC since opening in .spring of 1981……Humble Tiger at same spot…but Moorings since 1971…….we would not renew each year if the docks and people were not awesome….not to mention the best spot in downtown Newport!

It’s always the combination of the location in Newport and the quality of the facilities but it really is always the people to the service they deliver. Terrific!

Newport Yachting Center is our favorite Marina to visit. All of the staff are very friendly and professional. The Dockmaster Carter is so accommodating and helpful. Each time we visit there is always someone on the dock to welcome us and assist with tying up. Their restrooms are very clean. They have a rooftop deck to relax on and watch the sun set. They are centrally located to great restaurants and bars. On many a weekend evening there is usually a wedding taking place which is always enjoyable to watch or listen to the music. Would definitely recommend NYC if visiting Newport.
