Distance, night return, and tender reality

Road / marine contextGenerally 0–8 road miles from the harbor core
Best boat baseGig Harbor anchorage or guest moorage
From that baseMost downtown stops are within roughly 0.2–2 miles; Purdy and Fox Island are farther
Ride/cab planning range$10–$24 for many local harbor trips; planning range, not a live quote
In daylight

Walk the waterfront core or use the e-bikes in daylight; use the exact map for the named start point.

After dark

Do not make the return ride the adventure. Use a rideshare or cab for anything beyond the lit harbor core.

Dinghy landing

Jerisich Dock at Skansie Brothers Park - posted dinghy/nonmotorized area: Best documented Gig Harbor landing for a small tender, provided the boat is in the posted dinghy area and any posted time limit is obeyed.

Verified marine-access recordJerisich Dock at Skansie Brothers Park - posted dinghy/nonmotorized areaUsable within the stated limits

The municipal code defines a dinghy as a tender no longer than 13 feet. Dinghies and human-powered craft may tie only in an area posted for that vessel type or alongside their mother vessel. The posted dinghy/nonmotorized area is free, subject to time limits.

Hours / return constraint: Dock is accessible for transient moorage. Restrooms are 5:00 AM-10:00 PM. Overnight moorage is chargeable when present after 8:00 PM or before 8:00 AM.

  • DO NOT ASSUME every open spot on Jerisich is free dinghy parking; the free treatment is tied to the posted dinghy/nonmotorized area.
  • DO NOT ASSUME the load/unload zone is parking; a navigator must remain and depart immediately after passengers disembark.
  • DO NOT ASSUME restrooms remain open after 10:00 PM.

The prominent crow-flight mileage is a geographic comparison from Jerisich Dock, not a route distance. Road, marine, time, and fare figures here are planning ranges, not live quotes. The named dock panel uses verified landing information where available; otherwise it explicitly tells you to confirm before relying on it.
