“We will have full capability to haul most sail and motorboats up to 60 feet and the capacity for storing over 125 boats during the winter months. We are also currently taking reservations for our winter storage programs and reservations have already been met with much enthusiasm by the townspeople.”
In appreciation to the town for all of the hard work put forth to make this happen, Scituate Boat Works will be holding a kick-off celebration in September.
