I had to have some warranty work done over the winter by another Marina and it was a complete disaster as they broke more than they fixed.

He will be the only one that is allowed to work on my boat going forward!

Bill Jr and Bill Sr do an excellent job…read more I contracted AMT to move a recently purchased boat for launch, and they did so in an expeditious manner and for a good price. After launching, an incident resulted in the vessel taking on water, requiring the vessel be pulled again the next day. Bill and crew came out on a Saturday to help my sorry butt, and did an excellent job. When the damage was revealed that had been causing the leaking, Bill Jr developed a novel approach to the repair that actually saved me thousands of dollars in repairs. Yesterday, all the repairs were completed, and Bill Jr and company delivered the vessel to my storage spot I'd built in my yard. He took the time to go over everything that had been accomplished, and also made recommendations regarding the winter storage that were very timely. Bottom line: Atlantic Marine Transport is very customer oriented, cost effective, hard working and diligent. They have single-handedly shown me, by mission of action, that there are still good people who work in the marine field. Keep them on your short list, and at the top of it.

A Wonderful Experience at Yawgoo!…read more We had such an amazing time at Yawgoo with our 4‑year‑old daughter's ski lessons. From the moment we arrived, every single staff member was beyond incredible--patient, cheerful, and so great with the kids. They made her feel comfortable, confident, and excited to learn, which is everything you could hope for as a parent. The lessons themselves were fantastic, and you could truly see how much the instructors cared about creating a positive experience. Our daughter left smiling from ear to ear and already asking when she can go back! After lessons, we headed over to The Max and had an absolute ball. The chicken tenders were delicious, and the Shirley Temples hit the spot--total treat for all of us. It was the perfect way to wrap up a fun winter day. We can't say enough good things about Yawgoo. Wonderful people, great atmosphere, and amazing memories for our family. We'll definitely be back!

We had already made the drive down to Exeter so we were committed at this point. For ski rentals and for 3 people to ski- it was nearly $500!!!! We definitely got our moneys worth tho. The food was not very good, and the skis were not great. For what we paid we could have spent the day on Killington mountain. However, I was glad that we went because my son did learn to ski here and he was a naturally good skier, so good he went down their black diamonds, I started skiing in my 20s and I also learned here however I'm still afraid to go down a black diamond, even a Yawgoo Valley black diamond!

I live in Connecticut but found Scott's Boat Service in Rhode Island. I had a number of calls to make sure we had the right equipment. Scott Lehigh, the owner, is extremely courteous, helpful and really spent the time to make sure I got the right equipment. He always got back to me promptly. I bought the equipment, his pricing was very reasonable, and he got the stuff shipped to me really quickly, at a very good price. I've dealt with a lot of mechanics, boatyards, dealers and miscellaneous boat and marine service people over the years, and many are unreliable and not even competent. But they don't get better than Scott's. Every aspect of my dealings with him was first rate.

I'm a huge fan of Edgewood Sailing School. The school is located at the Edgewood Yacht Club in the…read moreBrown University facilities right on the water. They offer great classes for adults (and probably for kids, but I'm not familiar them). Their level 1 curriculum includes - Sailing under just the main - Tacking and jibing - Mooring (J-turns) - Points of sail - Rigging and de-rigging - Etc. The level 2 curriculum is about the same - Sailing under main and jib - Methods of stopping under sail (like heave-to) - Harbor radio basics - Emergency situations There isn't much difference between I and II class except a jib. That being said, the goal -- from what I can deduce -- is to just get you comfortable with the boat. Instructors for the school are really top notch! Miles, Catherine, Stewart, and Jonathan all know their stuff, have years of experience, and genuinely enjoy teaching. Their method is to give a brief intro to a technique in the classroom and then get out on the water and do them. Level I students typically have a tutor in the boat while Level II just have another student. Instructors are in power boats on the water giving (or shouting guidance) while under sail. There are about 10 students in a class but only two sailing in a boat at a time, sometimes with a tutor. This does give you a good amount of time as crew or at the tiller. You almost always sail with a different student so that you get experience knowing how different people react. They also offer open sailing on the weekends, racing on Wednesday nights, and weekend day sails to a picnic for REALLY cheap. It's a great way to get more experience and test out your skills. This is probably one of the best things about the school is the after-hours access they provide at a very reasonable price ($25 for 3 hours recreational, $25 to race for a couple hours, $50 for all day picnic sail). I've also experienced their private lessons. Which I can only praise. I learned more in 8 hours of private lessons than I did in the classes. There is no classroom setting, it's all one-on-one and in the water. Well worth the money. I'm considering taking more lessons to learn more because I missed a Level III class about adverse conditions. I have only one complaint that could not be rationalized away. During the chalk talk students are allowed to ask questions... and I put those questions in two categories 1) Questions that could be answered by just DOING what we were being taught and 2) Questions that are completely irrelevant to our sailing level. I complain about these because these questions took time away from being on the water. I believe its inconsiderate to the other students -- most of our funds are limited and we can't keep taking classes. It's frustrating too because most of those questions were from Level I students (Level I and II are grouped together in classroom). If instructors could recommend questions be held until we're on boats or tell students not to worry about advanced questions that would really give more time on water and not boil the blood of the Level II students (all in my class felt the same). Overall though I give it four stars. If I gave them five it would be saying they're perfect -- and they're not. But they are pretty darn close... and I like that! I will continue to throw money at the Edgewood Sailing School. I'm not staff, just a very enthusiastic student!
