Boat Storage?
We're new to area & would like to find a location to store our 41 Morgan for the summer. Suggestions? Cost?
Thanks!
Laura & Larry

By "store," are you looking for a yard? If so, try Abaco Yacht Services on Green Turtle.

If you want dry storage, try Abaco Yacht Services on GTC or Lighthouse Marina in Hopetown.

There are any number of marinas that offer in-water storage. Expect to pay a lot as this is their busy season. Suggestion, pick a marina that is well-protected from bad weather like Boat Harbour, Sea Spray, MOW Marina, and TC Marina.

Renting a mooring is probably the least expensive storage option. MOW and Hopetown offer the most possibilities. Do a "Search" on this website and you'll find the names of different contact persons.

Good luck!

Calcutta on Marsh Harbour I have heard lots of good things about. Not sure if Calcutta is the biz name though or just the nickname. I keep mine at Lighthouse Marina, but it's 26'. I can't remember if I have seen anything like a 41' in there. Calcutta or the recommendations on GTC sounds good.

That appears to answer my question of what the heck you're standing next to in your avatar!

Or maybe not!
