Morehead City Yacht Basin

Morehead City Yacht Basin The Yacht Basin was originally built in 1946. It started out as a pier and a building with an office, lounge with lockers, and a storage room.

Around 1952, Bump Styron bought the Yacht Basin and added two piers. The Yacht Basin has always had close ties to the boating and fishing in Morehead City including the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament that started in 1957. Bump himself won the tournament in 1970 aboard the "Reel King". Legend has it that even Ernest Hemmingway at one time fished for marlin out of the Yacht Basin. The Morehead City

Yacht Basin has always been known for its customer service. James Hester greeted boaters for over fifty years and customers still come in and tell stories about his smiling, friendly service.
