Our Heritage
A Legacy Forged in Saltwater & Dedication
Founded in 1987 by the Harrison family, Blue Heron Marina & Boatworks began with a simple philosophy: treat every vessel as if it were our own, and every boater like family.
Three decades later, we've grown into the Chesapeake's premier full-service marine destination — a sprawling showroom, state-of-the-art dry stacks, and a service team that treats craftsmanship as a calling.

Voices from the water
Trusted across the Chesapeake
“Purchasing our first cruiser through Blue Heron was an exercise in pure professionalism. No pressure, just incredible knowledge and a genuine desire to match us with the perfect vessel. Their post-sale service has been equally flawless.”
Robert C.Sea Ray Owner · Slip Customer
“The service department here is unmatched on the Bay. I had a complex rigging issue that two other yards couldn't fix. The master tech at Blue Heron diagnosed it in an hour and had me back on the water by the weekend.”
Sarah & Tom M.Tournament Anglers
“We've kept our boat in their dry-stack facility for three seasons now. The launch app is incredibly convenient, the staff is always courteous, and the facilities are immaculate. It truly feels like a private club.”
Dr. James L.Dry-Stack Member
FAQ
Questions, answered
Do you sell both new and pre-owned boats?
Yes. We carry new pontoons, center consoles, and cruisers from our partner brands, alongside a rotating selection of certified pre-owned vessels that pass a rigorous multi-point inspection before they hit our showroom.
What's the difference between a wet slip and dry-stack storage?
A wet slip keeps your boat in the water at your assigned dock, ready to step aboard. Dry-stack storage racks your boat indoors and launches it on request through our app, which protects the hull and cuts maintenance between outings.
Are your technicians certified?
Our service department is a certified Yamaha and Mercury center, and our technicians are factory-trained across engines, rigging, electronics, and fiberglass work.
Can I trade in my current boat?
Absolutely. Bring it by for a fair, no-obligation trade-in appraisal, and we can apply the value directly toward a new or pre-owned vessel from our inventory.
Do you offer boat rentals?
Yes. Our seasonal rental fleet of late-model pontoons and deck boats is available by the half-day or full-day, with captained charters on request for groups and special events.
