Over-winter 2007-08 Boatyards

  • Continental Marine [Paul Griffith 617-479-5799] [and Tom X (ThomS thinks Tom X works with Paul)]
    • NOTE: Paul's cellphone number is in Nevermore log book back page of contacts
    • 86 Reservoir Road
    • stores boats in Quincy near MBTA ferry terminal in shipyard parking lot
    • there is NO boat-launching access where boats are stored, they get trucked over from the river
    • moves mast from cabin top to our sawhorses, must replace it aboard to truck boat to the river
  • [Quincy Maritime Park] [AKA Scalisi Marine] 781-331-0446
    • where Nevermore got hauled (i.e., they're on the river)
    • equipment is:
      • low trailer that is submerged and placed under hull,
        and a truck pulls trailer & boat up a ramp and finally to storage yard
        [trailer can't lift boat enough for re-rigging centerboard pennant]
      • crane that pulls mast prior to the boat trailer being towed to storage yard;
        mast is placed aboard for trucking to winter yard; we had it put on the ground to cover boat


  • Question: Where might we get hauled to replace centerboard pennant? (per Paul)
    • need a Travel-Lift, i.e. we need to be raised high enough for keel to extend
    • might get short-time (overnight?) haul, even during their busy times (May-June)
      • over-night, or maybe if they have a long lunch-break (which I doubt)
      • must verify we can work on boat ourselves
    • Paul suggests asking at:
      • Town River Marina [Dave Donahue]
      • Boston Boat Works (I think is in Boston Harbor)
      • Bay Point Marina 617-471-1777
      • Marina Bay 617-328-7200
    • Paul mentioned
      • he could trailer boat to one of the above (rather than launching at Quincy Maritime Park)
      • but we didn't talk about who would step mast
