Annapolis is a major boating hub. RV and boat trailer parking on city streets is limited. Residential storage of boats and trailers behind the front building line is generally permitted. Marina storage is widely available.
Given Annapolis's role as Maryland's sailing capital, boat and marine trailer storage is common. RVs and boat trailers may be parked on city streets temporarily but are subject to the 48-hour abandoned vehicle rule. Residential storage of boats, trailers, and RVs must be behind the front building line and off the traveled portion of any street. The city has numerous marinas (Annapolis City Marina, Spa Creek marinas) providing professional boat storage. HOA neighborhoods in Eastport and nearby communities may have additional restrictions. Oversized vehicles may be prohibited on certain downtown streets.
Street storage beyond 48 hours: tow at owner's expense. Parking in front yard setback area: zoning citation.
