Mercury Outboard Service in Westbrook CT


Westbrook's first marina, Pier 76 Marina was founded by Bill McCoombs in 1948 on the west bank of the Patchogue River just north of the Boston Post Road (US RT 1). Most people know the location by the "Singing Bridge", a name given to the steel bridge over the Patchogue River.



The strictly powerboat facility has 254 slips on floating docks accommodating vessels up to 26' in length. A paved launching ramp with a floating dock is available to marina patrons for free.  There are also slips dedicated to Jet Skis.

Certified Mercury Outboard and Mercruiser Stern Drive technicians work on-site. The Mercury/Mercruiser parts store also carries boating supplies.

Bill's Seafood Restaurant is our next door neighbor so you can get off your boat and walk to lunch or dinner.

Want to see the world record striped bass?












World Record Striped Bass. The new world-record striped bass was caught on the night of August 4, 2011 in Connecticut waters. The striper was boated by Greg Myerson and weighed in at 81.88 pounds, which edges out the previous record of 78.8 pounds caught in 1982.


ABOUT THE WORLD RECORD STRIPER



The current world record striper, the fourth Greg has caught, was landed on August 4, 2011 off Westbrook, CT. Tipping the scales at 81 lbs, 15 oz., Greg caught this beast of a fish on an eel using his patented RattleSinker™ and his signature Rattling technique. It was the fourth time Greg has broken the world record. He set out from his dock at Pier 76 Marina, where you can see a mounted version of his trophy at Jack's Bait and tackle.











While you are there don't forget to stop in and say hello, to Lucy, that is!
