Bluewater Plans Move to Port Annapolis Following Safe Harbor Acquisition
Following the acquisition of Port Annapolis by Safe Harbor Marinas, Bluewater Yacht Sales will be relocating to the 16-acre boatyard and marina facility. Bluewater has operated in and around Annapolis for over 30 years, with the past five years spent on Spa Creek near downtown. The new location will allow for a larger footprint and more vessel storage options, as well as greater service capabilities and more opportunities for growth. According to Bluewater Yacht Sales General Manager Wyatt Lane, “the Bluewater team is proud to be part of Safe Harbor’s continued expansion in Annapolis. This latest acquisition strengthens our ability to serve our customers with enhanced support and services throughout the Chesapeake Bay region.”
As a subsidiary of Safe Harbor Marinas, Bluewater Yacht Sales will now benefit from having common ownership with sales, service, storage, and support in one location. Port Annapolis is currently one of the largest marina operations in the Annapolis area, with a 250-slip marina, expansive dry storage, and a full-service boatyard. Service capabilities include two marine travelifts with the ability to haul boats up to 80 feet, bottom painting and barrier coatings, engine and mechanical repairs, electronics, plumbing, rigging, and general maintenance. The property also includes a wide assortment of commercial spaces and resort-style amenities to support their members and guests.
The additional space and service capabilities will enable Bluewater as they continue to build their new and brokerage yacht sales presence in the upper Chesapeake Bay. The company’s Maryland division currently employs 14 brokers and staff members through their three waterfront locations, two premier brands, and extensive yacht brokerage operation. Safe Harbor Marinas closed on Port Annapolis on November 11, 2025, making it the 151st location to join their global portfolio of marinas and shipyards. Bluewater Yacht Sales will begin their move to Safe Harbor Port Annapolis with a planned opening in early 2026.
