The transmission of my new-to-me1983 Wauquiez 38 broke down just off Deltaville on a long trip home…read morefrom buying her in FL. The towboat/US guy brought me here & I couldn't have been luckier. This family-owned full-service marina at the southern entrance of Chesapeake Bay is extremely well run, clean, organized & friendly. Everyone I dealt with here at every level struck me as honest, friendly & competent. I had to leave the boat over the winter to have the transmission, shaft seal, & cutlass bearing replaced. Because they charge one price per boat (not per foot) for winter storage the place is full of very big sailboats wintering on long passages up & down the US coast. Mine was on the smaller side. Because they allow you to work on your own boat, which USED to be the norm, I spent many weekends over the fall & spring there & got to know this beautiful area filled with lots of marine businesses & extremely friendly people willing to help out a stranger. I was actually a little sad to leave in Spring. The yard did my repairs on time, highly professionally & their prices were reasonable compared to many other bigger-name marinas in the area. Their well-maintained facilities also included free use of a pool, showers, clubhouse lounge & even use of a car for local errands. Deltaville is only about an hour by car from Colonial Williamsburg & close to other historic sites like Jamestown. Sailing families with kids will particularly enjoy stopping here, though there is no mass transit as far as I could see. DYC sells boat gas but not diesel, which was a surprise, but it isn't far away. The inlet to get in here can get shallow but I saw scores of big deep-draft fixed-keel sailboats on the hard here so evidently not a problem. You just need to time your comings & goings well. This breakdown could have been a soul-destroying, money-sucking nightmare for me at some other marinas. Instead, I was extremely lucky to land here. Can't praise & thank everyone there enough.

I understand that things may have been "iffy" under PREVIOUS ownership, but I have spent a good amount of time in boatyards working on my 1967 Rawson, and this experience has been Grade A all the way! It's a small and hands-on yard, where you can work on your boat or just leave it with confidence knowing that it will be well cared for. John arranged for me to have a spot to tie off the evening before my haul, and he was involved in every aspect of successfully hauling and blocking my boat. He has answers to resources in town for parts and services. The bathroom was clean and the WiFi worked without any silly hoops to jump through. I am happy to be there now and will be happy to return again in the future!

I am a transient boater and my depth finder had stopped working enroute to Gloucester, VA. I…read moredetermined that I would get the depth finder fixed and take the time while at the marina to have a new AIS system installed. I found Tony's/Teal Marine's number at the local West Marine... and wow, professional from the very start! We initially ordered a new transducer, but found that the chartplotters only needed a software update. I called Tony back and he was able to cancel the transducer order at no cost. I still wanted to install the AIS system, and being a transient boater Tony was able to find a gap in his schedule THAT very day due to a foul weather survey cancelation. When he arrived he was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. He got the job done quick and everything works perfectly. I give my highest recommendation to Teal Marine. If you need quality service done fast and done right, give them a call!!!

CORINNE G. I have been in this business for over 50 years…read more I did alot of work on the Hull and Dagger board as wel as paint work ,repaired your trailer and thought you were one of the better slip holders. Last December you were in my Office and said c would I get you an I 40 depth instrument an I called West Marine Pro and ordered an I-40 Depth sounder ​and I told you then that you were in luck it was on clearance and ga e you the discount. At that time I told you it would be there the next day. YOU CAME IN THE OFFICE AND SAID YOU WERE GOING TO INSTALL THE HEAD UNIT YOURSELF I handed you the I-40 that was never taken out of the box in my presence snd you handed me the transducer and said you weren't comfortable doing the transducer install but you were going to wire everything your self. 8 months later i get a call with a man calling me a idiot, incompetent and cuasing me.I let him that Mulligan a d called my West Marine Pro Rep . To see if he would help with this deal and he laughed and said and you want help on an electronic instrument that the customer installed 8 months ago. When the Customer not read when he turned it on it would have said Speed. Talking to the Riggers that did not show up to help this man they said he was too hard to deal with and the internet junk rigging the boat owner had was dangerous and I said the same when I saw it. I ask my West Marine Representative if he would help get this straight and said no way due to 8 months time gone by. I had West Marine Pro to send me the right Instrument and it was $300.00 more dollars than the speed that the Customer installed himself 8 months ago. I told the boat owner West Marine Pro would not Participate but they had the correct I40 depth was in stock and I would.have it mid week. The Boat owner said Bullshit he could get one the next day and called me a F'n liarat that point I hung the phone up. This man text me for several hours a day. I gave this gentleman 4 dates to hull the boat and install the correct Instrument. I told the customer to keep the speed instrument as it really is needed his boat and as is the depth instrument. The dates I gave him none was good for his schedule.At that point I realized nothing was going to please him. This man wrote a nasty email to Bill the owner of the marina a nasty letter and said my incompetence and other insults about my inexperience. 50 YEARS IN THIS BUSINESS i Love lead me to believe that nothing I would do to help these people would do would satisfy them. So after the insults almost fist fights and he swinging his cane at my wife he is a lucky man. I told him fair Weather and Following Sea's a d good luck at what ever Marina he was headed to. I would do for him what West Marine would do for a Company that spends tbousands of dollars a year with them and tha was nothing.
