I understand that things may have been "iffy" under PREVIOUS ownership, but I have spent a good amount of time in boatyards working on my 1967 Rawson, and this experience has been Grade A all the way! It's a small and hands-on yard, where you can work on your boat or just leave it with confidence knowing that it will be well cared for. John arranged for me to have a spot to tie off the evening before my haul, and he was involved in every aspect of successfully hauling and blocking my boat. He has answers to resources in town for parts and services. The bathroom was clean and the WiFi worked without any silly hoops to jump through. I am happy to be there now and will be happy to return again in the future!

We…read moreoffer all services, including: mechanical, electrical, electronics installation, custom fabrications, refits and repowers, and more.

The transmission of my new-to-me1983 Wauquiez 38 broke down just off Deltaville on a long trip home…read morefrom buying her in FL. The towboat/US guy brought me here & I couldn't have been luckier. This family-owned full-service marina at the southern entrance of Chesapeake Bay is extremely well run, clean, organized & friendly. Everyone I dealt with here at every level struck me as honest, friendly & competent. I had to leave the boat over the winter to have the transmission, shaft seal, & cutlass bearing replaced. Because they charge one price per boat (not per foot) for winter storage the place is full of very big sailboats wintering on long passages up & down the US coast. Mine was on the smaller side. Because they allow you to work on your own boat, which USED to be the norm, I spent many weekends over the fall & spring there & got to know this beautiful area filled with lots of marine businesses & extremely friendly people willing to help out a stranger. I was actually a little sad to leave in Spring. The yard did my repairs on time, highly professionally & their prices were reasonable compared to many other bigger-name marinas in the area. Their well-maintained facilities also included free use of a pool, showers, clubhouse lounge & even use of a car for local errands. Deltaville is only about an hour by car from Colonial Williamsburg & close to other historic sites like Jamestown. Sailing families with kids will particularly enjoy stopping here, though there is no mass transit as far as I could see. DYC sells boat gas but not diesel, which was a surprise, but it isn't far away. The inlet to get in here can get shallow but I saw scores of big deep-draft fixed-keel sailboats on the hard here so evidently not a problem. You just need to time your comings & goings well. This breakdown could have been a soul-destroying, money-sucking nightmare for me at some other marinas. Instead, I was extremely lucky to land here. Can't praise & thank everyone there enough.

Bob quickly acquired a small shop space in historic Gloucester Courthouse and his son Bobby began working for him on his days off from his full time job until he started full time with the company in early 2013.

The new location includes a 1,200 sq/ft show and parts room and a 2,400 sq.ft 3 bay shop. At the same time Dale was brought on as a third mechanic and Janet began running the front office.
