Crackdown at the Harbor: Can It Help Those Who Wait Years for
Moorings?

By MANDY LOCKE

There's about to be a crackdown in Edgartown's harbor
- new mooring regulations aim to fix a system in which some
boaters have been waiting a generation for a place to put their vessel.

Securing a permanent mooring in any East Coast port town these days
is often a challenge. But in Edgartown's inner harbor - one
of two Island towns that still permit private moorings -
it's practically impossible.
