Sailors try to tie up as close to Bannister's Wharf as they can, so that they can get a table at the Black Pearl (Bannister's Wharf, 200 Broadway, 401-846-5264, blackpearlnewport.com , entrees $14.50-$25) and order the clam chowder or other seafood specialties. Named after yachtsman Barclay Warburton III's brigantine rig and fitted with the restaurant equivalent of polished brass and well-oiled teak, the place feels like the inside of an old yacht.
