OnBuoy & Northwest Mooring Services Partnership

A Partnership Built for Buoy Owners

OnBuoy has partnered with NW Mooring Services to make buoy ownership a little more rewarding. When you list your mooring buoy on OnBuoy, NW Mooring Services will give you a $50 credit toward your next maintenance visit — whether that’s an inspection, a chain replacement, or a seasonal tune-up. It’s a simple way to offset the cost of keeping your buoy in great shape, while helping visiting boaters find safe moorage instead of dropping anchor.

How to Claim Your $50 Credit

1. Sign up on OnBuoy

Create your free account at onbuoy.com and enter referral code NWMOORING during sign-up.

2. List your moorage

Add your mooring buoy (or dock) with a few details — location, depth, vessel size limits, and your availability. It only takes a few minutes.

3. Get your $50 credit

Once your listing is live, we'll send you a check for $50 to offset your next service with NW Mooring Services.

Why List Your Buoy on OnBuoy?

Help Cover Maintenance Costs Guests help share the cost of maintaining your buoy. Between the $50 NW Mooring credit and what guests contribute, your moorage starts paying for its own upkeep.

Fewer Anchors, Healthier Waters Every guest who ties up to your buoy is one fewer anchor scarring the seafloor. You’re directly helping protect eelgrass and the marine life that depends on it.

You Stay in Control Set your own availability, vessel size limits, and pricing. Approve or decline every reservation request. Your buoy, your rules.

Join a Growing Community OnBuoy is Washington’s first eco-friendly guest moorage community. You’ll be part of a network of stewards making moorage safer, simpler, and better for everyone on the water.

About OnBuoy

OnBuoy is a Washington State Social Purpose Corporation that connects recreational boaters with privately owned mooring buoys and docks. Our mission is to make moorage safer, simpler, and better for everyone on the water — while reducing anchor damage to eelgrass and sensitive marine habitats in the Salish Sea.

We work with buoy owners, local communities, and regulators to expand responsible guest moorage options across the San Juan Islands, Puget Sound, and beyond.
