Took the 1 hour, 5pm sail and it was a magical experience. This August 2025 the weather was calm but had enough of a breeze to get us going. We sailed out of the harbor left and then sailed past the town. Fun! Meet at the edge/corner of the marina and there is a small placard and Captain Erik will probably be there waiting for you. He explains procedures, safety issues and points of interest in a clear and relaxing manner. Skinny, life jackets are provided. You can manually pull the orange tab to inflate or it will self inflate when submerged in water. Make reservations in advance.

The word of the day, Communication. sadly Sea Marine hasn't gotten around on that one…read more The phrase of the day "Get it in writing" I will commend them for availability but outside that Not impressed. To start, my rudder had sheered from the post so got towed into point hudson, I had scheduled a haul out for that Monday so spent the weekend on it, Monday comes and Jeremy tells me "oh I thought we said Wednesday" shrugged then went back to the computer, Generally, a Confirmation email and /or phone call with the scheduled haul out would've been sent. Wednesday, June 10th comes, get the boat to the haul-out station and half way up both owners Jeremy and Chris tell me "oh yeah, we require a $6000 deposit in case you abandon the boat" Really got me by the short ones here; My boat/home is in the air needing repairs and you decide NOW to tell me $6000 is owed before it's even up? Not to mention scratching the HELL out of my hull paint. I ask for the 2 week bottom paint package......6DAYS LATER they got it sanded and painted. I opted to repair the rudder myself because I was quoted a minimum of $5,000 but luckily years of sailing and working on ships, yachts and sailboats; I know my capabilities. With rudder repaired and back on I knoticed some paint was flaking and they swore they did 2 coats but ODDLY out of the 3 gallons of bottom paint I gave them only 1 was used and it wasn't fully empty. Again, YEARS of doing this work I know a 40 foot sailboat needs 2 gallons of bottom paint so the mystery is either, Sea Marine is pulling the sails over my eyes, my years of doing this work and math are liars OR we discovered a Bottom paint equivalent of Hanukkah oil that only One gallon was able to do 480 square feet TWICE. I'm sadly going to choose option one because After showing both Owners the blister and chipped paint that wasn't sanded well or feathered I go inside to fix a few things and over hear Jeremy tell his painter "Just throw some paint on it, I'm tired of this". Are you? Because I'm pretty tired of Having No communication through this whole thing, the bullshit excuse "we tried calling but straight to voicemail", I can get signal 30 nautical miles off the coast, pretty sure you can reach me out on Marrowstone. Safe assumption, I won't return here for work to get done which sucks cause they were convenient and that's really about it save yourself the hassle, go to the main Marina/boat yard, they'll allow you to do your own bottom work cause apparently can't even trust contractors. So I will bite the almost $5000 tab for shoddy bottom work and Not contacting me until "Oh we're done" with the blister still open and not even sanded, but I'll make that back the first week of sailing so they can have that but my Review remains Permanently.

He was beyond efficient!! He was able to do a dock visit which I greatly appreciated. He really listened as I informed him of the saga that was this engine as we assessed what had not yet been worked on. I appreciated how he explained everything as I'm a new boater, step by step so that I can address some of the issues in the future myself and know what to look for. After replacing the water separator he got to work on the carburetor and fuel pump. He took the time to do a sea trial, which made me feel a lot more confident and even tested that all the proper alarms were in place for if the engine overheats etc. She's now running like a champ and getting to enjoy some summer weather out on the water.

But this particular review is for a specific event that happened today. We came into PT after having wrapped a line around our prop. This damaged the shaft. We needed someone to check it out and perhaps repair it before we headed north for a 3-week cruise. First we ran into Matt on the dock and told him our tale. He asked Todd to come see us at our boat, and he showed up about 30 minutes later. Todd diagnosed that we needed Dean to come and bang some things around. Dean showed up about 30 minutes later and worked hard on the prop shaft for about two hours. Done. Fixed. We didn't need to haul out and we didn't need to delay our trip. These guys are awesome. They really know their stuff and they understand how to work not just with the boats, but with the people who own the boats. We recommend PT Shipwrights Co-op to all our boat friends.
