Recommended Marinas

1- Markley’s Marina (233 Nanticoke Road, Essex, MD 21221-1532;
phone: 410-687-5575) on the Middle River (approx. 30 miles North of
Annapolis) has always done a wonderful job for me on GUSTO II. In fact
since I left Clearwater in 1980, no one else has picked my boat out of the
water or worked on it other than Markley’s. They have a 60 ton lift, a
large boom crane & a building large enough to house a 68′ Irwin. Connie
is who you want to talk with.

2- Sailor’s Wharf, St. Petersburg, Florida www.sailorswharf.com
Fine painting and electrical/mechanical abilities

Ever wonder what is the correct line to use for the main halyard when cruising your Irwin-43? How about the Jib halyard when racing your Irwin-52? The link below contains excellent information.
