What if helping boaters find moorage could also help protect our waterways?

That's one of the ideas I'll be discussing as a guest on the upcoming Argo Navigation Live webcast.

When guest moorage is difficult to find, boaters often end up relying on crowded anchorages. Meanwhile, thousands of private docks, slips, and mooring buoys sit empty on any given night.

At OnBuoy, we believe there's a better way.

By helping boaters connect with existing moorages, we can make boating more enjoyable while reducing pressure on popular anchorage areas and sensitive marine habitats. It's a simple idea that creates benefits for everyone: boaters, waterfront property owners, and the environment.

I'm looking forward to sharing the story behind OnBuoy, why we're passionate about protecting our waterways, and how the boating community can work together to make better use of the moorage that's already out there.

A big thank you to Argo for the invitation. We hope you'll tune in!

⛵ Connecting boaters. Protecting our waterways.

Nothing like moorage with a view! 🌊⛵️

Located at the entrance to Eagle Harbor, near the ferry terminal, this moorage comes with incredible views of Mount Rainer.

A great overnight option for boaters heading north or south along Bainbridge Island.

There’s also plenty to do in this area- you can take your tender to Hawley Park, about 1/4 mile at high tide. From there, Winslow is about a 1/3 mile walk.

The buoy was professionally installed and maintained annually, offering boaters a safe and environmentally friendly alternative to dropping anchor.
