The boat was taking In some water through behind the engine and one engine lost fuel prime and would not restart. I called the marina and the owner was so kind she helped us dock which from my limited skills especially with one engine was a catastrophe. She let me go where I could and showed us how to tie up. The marina moved the boat to the correct slip for me and I am currently figuring out what to do but the marina was kind not judgmental, calm. And helpful even though I definitely made some poor decisions in attempting this without another adult. The owner's attitude made a bad situation of which she didn't cause more manageable and didn't make my bad day worse.

It super conveniently located, the dock is right in the heart of the town, and a quick walk to some great shops and restaurants. Really great resource for RI boaters. A+
