    I’m in Maine (Robinhood / Georgetown) and have damaged a stabilizer fin. In need of a yard to haul and asses damage (75’ Hatteras MY). It’s about time to migrate southward so I’m thinking of heading to Portland. Anyone have good yard experience in the realm?

    Haven’t used them myself, but Portland Yacht Service has good reputation and largest travel-lift in Maine.

    Front Street Shipyard in Belfast would be my first choice.
