About Annapolis - Fairwinds Marina
Fairwinds Marina is nestled in the serene riverfront community of Cape Saint Claire. This neighborhood gem is Annapolis's destination for complete marine care on the Magothy River.
The Magothy River runs 12.1 miles through Anne Arundel County, opening into the Chesapeake Bay between Gibson Island & Persimmon Point. The river is a renowned fishing destination, as well as a local favorite to jump in for a swim.
Located between Baltimore and Annapolis, this quiet cove offers a peaceful home on the water, along with quick and convenient access to the bay’s most popular destinations.
We are open 7 days a week to serve you and your boat’s needs. Start getting the most out of your boating experience – stop by today to see the boats!
PLEASE NOTE: A Boater Education Card from Maryland or your home state must be in your possession. You need education if you were born after July 1, 1972, and will be operating a boat or PWC in Maryland. You can take the boaters safety course online for free at http://www.boatus.org/maryland/.

"If you're into boats and being on the water, Freedom Boat Club is the best way to do it!!"
"The customer service is bar none, incredibly responsive with reservations and requests. The boats are pristine, another factor FBC's competition just can't hold a candle to. I have entertained family/friends on the sun deck and clients on the center console."
