Pumpout Boat "HoneyDipper"

e-mail: honeydipper@westrhoderiverkeeper.org

We are pleased to offer pump-out service for recreational boaters on the West and Rhode Rivers. This program is supported by a grant from Maryland Department of Natural Resources. Call us to get your holding tank pumped out. Let's keep waste out of our rivers!

In 2011 there is a $5 fee for boaters who are not members of the West/Rhode Riverkeeper organization. If you are a member at the $50 Family Membership level or above then we will waive the fee and your pump-out will be free!
You can join by clicking here.

The 2011 Season begins May 13 and run through October 30.

To contact the Honeydipper during the season,
Call 410-940-3754
Or hail "Honey Dipper" on VHF Channel 71

If you keep you boat at a marina, and you need Pumpout service at a time when you are not there, we can perform a pumpout - but ONLY if marina staff will assist.
