I keep hearing a place mentioned... saugatuk or sawtucket or something like that. It's a harbor where some of the tuna fleet fish out of...where exactly are they talking about?

Saquatucket Harbor in South Harwich?

From the ocean, enter Nantucket sound with Monomoy on your stb, take a right,head n/ne for about 8-9 miles
In Harwichport between south Chatham & Bass river

Saquatucket Harbor is in Harwich. A lot of tuna landed there. They are friendly and fishermen friendly to boot.

I wouldn't call that town "fisherman friendly" when they were charging $600 for a tuna offloading permit.

If the bite ever gets going there for real again (and I mean 90's real) you can bet that permit will come back out of the closet.

Thanks! That is it. Funny, I never seem to really hear of it until recently and wondered where it was. I have been by it but the name did not register. I am going to have to visit it and check it out more closely.

Same goes for the Chatham fish pier with the permit $

I have stayed there in the past when keeping the boat closer to the tuna grounds for a weeks stay. It's a little longer than running from chatham but I think it much easier to navigate in the dark. I don't know Chatham well enough especially since the ground keeps changing over there.

Does MA allow localities to impose their own separate permits?
