| MAY 2006 ARTICLE IN LOCAL NEWSPAPER New Eastport marine business opens doors By Susan Esposito A new business in Eastport is offering marine service, inside and outside storage and marina facilities, as well as a workshop facility for the "do it yourself" boat owner. Located at Harris Cove, Easternmost Marine offers well- protected anchorage and limited dockside berthing. Owner Daniel Morehouse says, "Whether it is a sailing vessel, pleasure craft or commercial workboat, Easternmost Marine can accomplish almost every task." Morehouse points out, "We provide near six feet of draft at dockside and up to 15 within the cove; over 25 feet of draft for mooring just at cove's end, yet still in protected water.There is easy access to seawall area and plenty of room for tender berthing." "No idea is far-fetched for us," says Easternmost Marine's owner."Nothing too large or too small." Although he just became a new business owner, Morehouse is already looking ahead into ways to help the local economy. His plans are to organize nautical events "which would support Eastport tourism and be possibly a further enrichment of the summer season festivals." Morehouse says he was enjoying retirement when he got the urge to live Downeast. Research led him to Eastport and the Harris Cove facility, which was for sale. Arriving on a very windy spring day, he knew he was exactly where he wanted to be. |
| DreamChaser Introduction |
| Morehouse, a Florida native who grew up in New Hampshire, recalls that his first paying job was as a driver of the Miss Winnipesaukee Chris Craft speedsters. Later, he worked aboard various fishing boats in Bar Harbor before he was lured into working as a delivery skipper of large sailing yachts in the Pacific. In the mid-80s, Morehouse managed the Minneford Yacht Yard in New York and developed his own marina complex in City Island and Newburg on the Hudson River. After retiring at age 50, he enjoyed sailing his racing sloop, purchased and renovated an 88-ton coastal shrimper and sailed his 62' ketch, complete with two deck cannons, throughout the Caribbean. If you check what is flying beneath the American flag outside of Easternmost Marine, you will see the tattered remnants of his personal ensign- a Caribbean pirate flag which has weathered five hurricanes aboard his various vessels. And the fellow wearing a cowboy hat or Bubba Gump baseball cap will be the owner. If you can't stop by just contact Morehouse and Easternmost Marine at 207-853-0859 or |
