LADDERS

During our OSHA review, ladders and scaffolding were identified as a major liability issue and we have established new policies for using such. Please read items 18-20 in the DIY Rules; a copy of the required waiver is here:

Policies

  • All trash is to be placed in the green dumpsters behind the relief station
  • Used oil, gas and antifreeze receptacles are available at the Used Oil containment facility by the paint barn. Please see the office for these items.
  • Pets are welcome but should kept on a leash and walked in the dry storage area or behind The Shack.  Please pick up after your pet.
  • Parking is allowed in designated parking areas. No parking is allowed in travel lift or ramp areas during working hours on week days.
  • Please keep your boat neat and clean at all times.
  • Work on boats by outside contractors is discouraged but if necessary can be done with permission by the marina office. All outside contractors must adhere to the Outside Contractor Policy that is available at the marina office.

Dry storage areas are all above MLW by 20’ - in the event of a storm surge, your stands will not wash out. Your boat will be as safe as it can be no matter what the weather. Serviced by a 40-ton Travelift and 30-ton hydraulic trailer, Yankee Point can accommodate up to 180 boats.

We can provide a Bristol finish for any brightwork. We use all of the established varnishes as well as Awl Wood™ products.

We can handle any plumbing system that you can throw at us. We have replaced thousands of seacocks and more importantly ball valves that could have failed and no doubt prevented many catastrophes at sea. Come see us and let us make your system right. All work is done to ABYC standards.

Electrical & Electronics

Yankee Point Marina is a Garmin Dealer and a NMEA Member with a NMEA Certified Installer. We have experience with all brands of electronics and can pretty much do anything you need done to your system. Being a Restoration Boatyard, our electricians have had the opportunity to unscrambled countless electrical nightmares and turn them into logical, well ordered and labelled systems probably saving lives. All work is performed to ABYC specifications and is warranted by Yankee Point Marina.

Detailing

Yankee Point Marina provides detailing services on an hourly basis or by firm written estimates. Knowing where the dirt hides is a key to fine detailing. If it is at all possible, when we do the work, your boat will be as clean and shiny as she was when she came off the show room floor.

Rigging

Many rigging issues are easily handled if you have the knowledge and experience to know what works and what does not. Our riggers have that experience. For major work we have long developed relationships with the best independent riggers in the area. We are very competitive and can provide solutions to even the most complex issues.
