There are good-sized mooring fields in Vineyard Haven and Edgartown.
Edgartown has a commercial launch service (Oldport, same as Block and
Newport),

VH is a charming (I think) working harbor with ferries, barges, etc
coming and going. The town is dry. I don't know whether BYOB is
permitted at the Black Dog tavern.

Edgartown is an expensive-looking town built by prosperous sea
captains. Every house appears to have professional landscaping
service. There are fine restaurants with prices to match. Definitely
not dry.
