I think a 'dry' marina can work very well with the right management. The building requires extesive repairs and the racks inside needs to be reconfigured for efficiency. The only other problem is the lack of day docking. When everyone wnats their boat at once, like 8 AM Saturday morning, there is not enough docking to provide that kind of service.

If something can be worked out with the town for good business and the building is sold low enough to allow repairs with a mortgage then I think it will be a success.

Otherwise sell the property to the Gilford Islands Association. They are enough of a headache as they are.
What a nice guy Brian is! Do you know what he is doing now?
