OUR MISSION

The Port of Brownsville Marina has all the amenities of a large marina but with the charm, peacefulness and rustic setting of a small rural community.

The first Brownsville dock was built in 1901 by community donated work and continued to be kept up by community effort until the Brownsville Port District was formed 7 April 1920 by special election. Brownsville Port District is what is known as an Independent “Special District.” State law defines a special district as “any agency of the state for the local performance of governmental or proprietary functions within limited boundaries.” A special district is a separate local government that delivers public services.

Brownsville is located on the Port Orchard Bay half way between Bremerton and Poulsbo making it a convenient place to visit or stay. The Port facility offers both guest and permanent moorager’s excellent parking, fuel, large boat ramps, electrical and water hook-ups at all moorage sites.

2023 Moorage Rates

At the November 16, 2022, Commission Meeting the Commission of the Port of Brownsville officially adopted the Tariff for the year of 2023. These new rates are set to go into effect on January 1, 2023. The monthly cost for moorage will be increasing by about 9% over the 2022 rate. You can find the new cost of your moorage at the “2023 Moorage Rates by Slip Size” link below. All rates listed include all associated taxes, utilities, and flat fees, but do not include other items such as the Denizen fee.

All rates calculated are as close to the final amounts as possible, but there may be small differences of a few cents.

Financial Workshops

The Port is planning to hold financial workshops on the 4th Tuesday of each month, with some exceptions, to discuss topics and answer questions provided by the public. Topics can address factual, financial information that the Port is able to locate and present in a cost-effective manner. Please note that it is possible that not all topic requests will be fulfilled if the information does not exist, if it would not be cost-effective to provide the information, if the topic is not finance related, or if the topic is not an item of interest to multiple parties.

If the topic would incur additional costs to produce but it has broad interest, the Port may consider authorizing incurring the additional costs on a pre-authorization basis.

Please send all submissions to Jerry Williams at jwilliams@portofbrownsville.org.
