Port San Luis has three different options for launching your boat depending on your boat size.
Public Hoist on Harford Pier
Individuals may self-launch their small boats by using our hoist located at the base of the Harford Pier. The total weight of the boat, including gear and engine, must be less than 1000 lbs. The cost to launch your boat is $2 for 10 minutes, cash or credit is accepted. Using the hoist is a two-person operation and owners must provide lifting straps. A public floating landing is available nearby to pick up passengers and gear.
