My grandfather owned Belle Isle marina and my dad did servicing for the yachts around the area.
The one thing that I remember about Belle Isle Marina is that the Coast Guard would come out of their station there to search my vessel whenever we came in after dark, which was all of the time. I never did have too much use for them after they wouldn’t go to the rescue of the fellows on the Eagle II when they went over the South Jetties during a storm. Those were the fellows that froze solid floating around in a fish box after the wreck.
