Plymouth hotel suggestions??

so I'm headed up with my boat this week to try for some of the tuna that have been out in the Bay- and I need a place to stay in Plymouth (or nearby).(boat is a 23' center console with T-Top)

Ideally it would be clean and fishermen -friendly (at least friendly enough that I can get my boat/trailer in there w/o too much hassle and not have it broken into overnight). any ideas?? I'll gladly provide you with a share of some delicious tuna in return

thanks- PM me if thats easier.

I appreciate any help- Bob

Hi bobber,

I launch in Plymouth a lot. Here is what I can tell you.

1. theft is everywhere, and Americas Home Town ain't no different, If it's not screwed down take it to your room.

There are a couple of hotels right on the waterfront, Sheraton and Govener Bradford Inn are the two closest to the ramp.
Right off exit 5 on RT3 (< 10 minutes from ramp) is a new Marriot in the Home Depot plaza, and the John Carver inn is only minutes from the ramp too.

The boat ramp in plymouth is very nice, no surprises or shallow spots, but the pinheads who spend tons of money to design the docks, didn't put a dock along side the ramp, so once your boat is off the trailer you have to run it over to the dock (When it's busy this system does not help move things along for solo boaters). Why they didn't put docks alongside the ramp or use green harbor as a model is beyond me.

If the hotels will not let boat stay, call Jesse Marine, they might have space to keep the boat there, or know where you can.

Good luck in your search for Tuna they're hitting everything and nothing

Did anyone have the pleasure of seeing the boat that was launched at the TOP of the ramp today? I hope that wasn't anyone here.

Otherwise I completely concur with what FishSmith said.

Hi Bobber,

Might be a little late to your post but a goof hotel for you to stay at is the Pilgrim Sands Hotel. Its right next to Berts Resturaunt (great food) on Warren Ave. Its close enough to the waterfront to be very convenient but away from the theft that mostly occurs on the "water front". And you can park your rig right next to your hotel room. Easier on the wallet as well compared to others hotels in the plymouth area.

Hope this helps.

The further way from the shore you sleep, the cheaper the rates and the less likelyhood stuff will be missing.My Streets and Maps shows 28 units within 3 miles of the harbor.
