I'm new to New England and have just purchased a CAL 25-II. I'm interested in finding a slip or mooring in Rhode Island (at this late date). So far, the best I've come up with is Masthead Marina in Warwick/East Greenwich. Does anyone know of a prettier area with vacancies (Bristol, Wickford, etc.)? I'd appreciate replies via NOTES or MAIL: USMRW1::BRYAN. Thanks, RPR

I've sailed Greenwich Bay and Narragansett Bay, and this year also have a slip at masthead marina. Narraganset bay provides some nice sailing around or under the bridges as well as reasonable access to Block Island and Marthas Vineyard. We like it because we don't have to fight traffic heading for the Cape on weekends. We had looked long and hard for facilities, a good slip, and a reasonable rate. Most of the other marinas in the area will charge about $10/ft more, won't have good facilities, will put you on the end of a dock to play breakwater for the other boats, or force you to wait on a list for a year or two. We were previously at Aponaug Harbor Marina, but when we bought a larger boat they couldn't handle us. I thought we got lucky with Masthead, they are building a bunch of new slips (protected) for boats from 25 to 35 ft and we were able to get one of them. Give me a call if you want a list of the other marinas, but we went through the same thing in December when we bought ours. Rick 223-6489 | |||||

I'd like to thank all of you who responded in this notes file and via mail. I was able to get some good leads and learn that where I stumbled into (Masthead Marina) wasn't so bad.......... THANKS! RPR | |||||
