    I recently talked with the owner and was informed that improvements to the land side were in the works. Zern Rigging has moved their offices and workshops to the marina.

    Pelican's Perch Marina has all new docks that are first rate. Place is clean and Danny, the Yard Manager couldn't be nicer and more helpful. They have a small but well stocked boat store and what appears to be a new 50 Ton Marine Travelift. Free Pump out services also.

    New floating docks are under construction (12/23/18). Marina is not currently operational, no docking available. Looks like spring '19 to be available. Place needs some serious work, perhaps in the plan with the new docks.

    The docks at this marina have been gone for some time. They were supposed to rebuilt this year but have not started yet. The boatyard still seems active but no marina.

    WG Editor Comment:
    Website states new docks are being installed.
