This really makes me mad. I hope he gets fined and charged for the cleanup.
This marina is located on Atlantic Ave. just before it ends and becomes Commercial St. I’m with you, Vinny.
Thanks for clarifying and giving this the light of print. I have seen this slick before. With a boat in the next slip at the time, we could not be sure of the source. Yachting Journal lists the owner as Mark Dente, 37 Baystate Rd., Wellesley Hills, MA 02481, where I would guess he is a very good neighbor. Now he has a chance to be one here as well.
This boat would NEVER pass a Coast Guard inspection. Coast Guard, where are you?
I just spoke with the owner, and this oil or gas leak was not from his current boat.
