Centered on the Location of This Marina:





























The docks are Harbor Square are very short fingers, shore side cleats are flimsy, pilings for lines there are two. No mid ship pilings between you and your neighbor. That is it. It is full of sailboats 30 ft or less. Granted you will not see any “surge” in either
location.

Harbor Square Marina (where we are presently moored) is still alive and well but has fewer services than is mentioned in the book. Duncan has no fuel and does not offer repairs, although his father who previously owned the place may have. However, he has no problem with outside workman and DIYs at all. He does take in transients, although he rarely has empty docks. I have seen him make room, whenever it’s needed. I even talked to a couple in Indiantown who told me that Duncan had moved his own boat to make room for their trawler. They were quite impressed. It’s a very low key operation. It’s still one of the most protected harbors for a really bad storm (ie. hurricane) on the E. coast of FL. People bring their boats from all over to tie up here when tropical weather is on its way.
