| 1320.1 | Try Handy Boat Service | SAGE::WALKER_K | | Mon Aug 28 1989 12:12 | 13 |
| I've been keeping boats at Handy Boat in Falmouth Foreside for the
past 10 or so years. They have rental moorings by the day/week for
transients. I'm not sure what their storage rates are for this winter
but I'm sure they'll send you a price sheet. I can highly recommend
their service shop, my last boat got very banged in hurricane whatever
it was a few years ago. Handy did all the fiberglass work and finished
it off with an Awlgrip job. I was very satisified and so was the
surveyor. There are several other places you may want to check.
The Yarmouth Boat Yard is up the Royal River in Yarmouth but is
reasonable and good. There are a couple of yards in South Freeport,
Strouts Point Marine comes to mind. Phone number for Handy Boat
is 207 781 5110.

| Dolphin Marina at Basin Cove, So. Harpswell may be cheaper than Handy's
for short term moorings. It's a pretty low key place. 207-833-6000
They are cheap for winter storage, but have no facilities for glass
work if you need that done.

You might try Stroughts Point Wharff - South Freeport. They rent
moorings by the day, week, etc. 207-865-3899

| 1320.4 | Thanx - I called Dolphin | SQLRUS::EASTLAND | | Thu Sep 07 1989 12:12 | 7 |

Thanx for your help, all. So far I only tried Dolphin. At $10 per
linear foot that's less than a third of the price at Gloucester Yankee
marine here in Mass.
I guess we'll be wintering up there...

| The Dolphin's just down Basin Pt. Road from my wife's sister. It's a very
pretty spot but very unprotected. It's right out on the end of Basin Point in
South Harpswell. The wind can get pretty amazing there at times. On the
posative side, the resteraunt has some of the best deserts north of Portland 8^)

| 1320.6 | Layed boat up at Dolphins | NOVA::EASTLAND | | Tue Sep 26 1989 12:19 | 14 |
| Thanx all for the input. We took the boat from Gloucester to Dolphin
marina Sunday and Monday with a stopover in Kennebunkport. First day,
25-35 knot winds and 10-15 foot seas. Second not really enough wind
but very relaxing way to go across the Bay. You've got some
fantastic-looking islands out there. Who owns that big house cut into
the side of the island close to the first red nun marker buoy (no 4 I
think) as you enter Potts harbor? What a place! Forgive me for not
remembering the name of the island. What with Junk Of Pork, Brown Cow,
Haddocks et al, I got island-overload

I think that you are talking about Admiral Perry's place on
Eagle Is. Its a museum with guided tours. I haven't been there, but I hear
its a great place to visit. Check your crusing guide.
(Travis, Have I got the right place?)
