573.0. "Marina information" by SMURF::AMATO () Mon Jan 11 1988 09:02

    I need some information on a marina.  I've been looking to find
    a new home for our boat for this season, and it looks like the only
    place that'll have any room is Danvers Port Marina.  Does anybody
    have any experience with this place?  I've been calling all over
    New England to find a spot, and they're the only one's that'll give
    me a commitment before May.  Any information on the marina is greatly
    appreciated.
    
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks Steve, but I've already talked to them.  They won't know about
    slips for awhile, I haven't heard very good things about the
    marina anyway.  I just need any info about Danvers Port, because
    they have room for me now, and they just mailed me a contract.
    Before I commit myself to them, I'ld just like any feedback anybody
    has on the matina.  
    
    Thanks again,
    joe

    me a slip at $16. a ft. includes potty water, electric, heads -showers
    laundry,pool,ba-ba-q area and parking.

573.4is $16/ft right price?SMURF::AMATOWed Jan 13 1988 06:5913
    Hi Walt,
    
    They want $45/ft, with water and electricity.  There are heads at
    a tackle shop (available during shop hours), but no showers.  Are
    you sure about that $16/ft?  All the marinas that I have called
    are from $50/ft up to $75/ft.  The $70-$75/ft price range all came
    from the Glouscter, Cape Ann area.  What side of the cape is the
    marina?  This sounds too good to be true. If the $16/ft is right,
    does he have rom for me?  Give me a call if you want.
    
    Thanks
    joe a.

    Hi 
    I was wrong on the price. It is $75. Ft At cape ann, The sixteen
    ame from the price of the boat for the year, it was a special deal
    if I bought my friends Bertram. Sort of an incentive.
    
    Anyway I just bought a new boat and rented a slip at City Boat Works
    Marina in Newburyport it is a good deal at $48. ft. and the location
    is great!!
    
    What kind of boat do you have and did you find a slip?

    re -1)
    
    Hi Walt,
    
    I finally got into Danvers Port for $45/ft.  Cheapest place I could
    find.  I didn't try Newburyport because I didn't like the thought
    of running the river every weekend.  We've got a 24ft Grady White
    Offshore.  It should be up here around May 1.  What kind of Bertram
    is your friends?  I'm not in the market but just curious.  I plan
    on fishing cod and halibut until July.  Then I'm going to start
    looking for my first giant.  I also hope to try some sharkin and
    plan at least one night trip to look for stripers.  I'll be fishing
    the northwest corner of Stellwagon, off of Halibut point, or up
    around souther Jeffries.  Maybe we can meet sometime.
    
    Our boat is kingfisher, and I usually hang out around channels 69-74,
    or wherever anybody else is.  What kind of boat did you get, what's
    the name, where do you usually fish and what do you go for?
    
    See ya around
