My father in law kept his Pearson 33 at Fort Rachel Marina and had positive
experience there as well. We managed to win the cruiser's race in 1991 called
the Zimbawe Cup, just beating a Ranger 33 and a Hobie 16 on corrected time.
Great fun. Great party afterward.

I have wintered at Fort Rachel for some 40 years now - a happy customer as
they say! John and I also have several other club members who winter there
as well. Very professional and competent, handle boats very well, do what
they say they will do in a reasonable time frame and pricing very
IIRC, wasn't someone just looking for a marina in this area? And also, was
this the marina that everybody was saying was really bad?

David,
Many have had the same bad experiences. They just sold their other marina,
Noank Shipyard, many boat owners and vendors had left there well before
that. I am also a very happy Fort Rachel customer. They are the best around
IMHO.

Per David's comment: "Given that…maybe insurance driven"; and the sudden
loss of neutral in the wiring that has been there for a long time...Bingo!!!

I can’t say I am terribly saddened. Seaport Marina is the worst marina I have
ever kept my boat at for the winter. Bent my stanchions, scraped my paint,
power never worked in yard, water never worked, claimed they were going to work
on my transmission and never did. I was there one winter
Not Mystic Seaport:
Seaport Marine is across the Mystic River from downtown Mystic. Seaport
Marine is at 2 Washington St. and has a waterfront restaurant, Red 36, and
a retail store, Fighting Lady Tackle Co., according to its website.
Prestige Yacht Sales, which is also located at 2 Washington
As did I...what fire at the Seaport?

John, what would cause something like that "open neutral" to happen so
Not sure, but my friend is an electrician that was called in by another friend
that had a boat in the water and all the shore power connections at the dock
had lost their neutral yesterday. Not sure why the yard did not shut off the
power.

I was able to attend the 2012 C rendezvous at Mystic and thoroughly enjoyed
it!

I was at the Mystic one last night. I live about a mile from downtown and my
boat is right across the river from Seaport Marine. When the explosions started
happening we rushed down. It was caused by an open neutral on the power feed
from the building to shore power to the boats in the water.
Couple of boatyard fires lately. Seaport Marine in Mystic, CT and Seabrook
Marine in New Orleans. Tough news.

Another thought used by my father back in the day was to get two automobile
steering wheel covers each ½ the circumference of the boat wheel, cut each then
glue together, use provided plastic “thread”. Worked well and not expensive.
As I recall they lasted quite a few years

I'm thinking of asking for a leather kit for my 52" wheel for
Chistmas. The Edson price is $380 and Defender offers a discount but
My wife and I did ours last winter with the boat leather.com version with the
foam. It was much easier as a two person job, but took us a while. We would
do about 2 feet of stitching each day and then got tired of it and would pick
it up in a day or two so the project stretched out over a few
