Dear Bay Bridge Marina friends and customers:

We are excited that Bay Bridge Marina has become part of The Hinckley family!

Mike Bickford

Hinckley has been building iconic yachts for nearly 100 years. The company operates boatyards from Maine to Florida, and these locations contribute to sales, service, and customer support. The natural evolution of the company has led to marinas.

Over the next few months, Hinckley will bring our regional service operation, presently based in Easton, to Bay Bridge Marina. We will enhance the current team by offering mechanical, electrical, painting, rigging, carpentry, varnishing, and detailing services. We will be able to quickly and thoroughly address any maintenance you require. When the time comes, we will be working with the crew on seasonal storage.

Hinckley will provide professional attention to all slip holders, transient boaters, and clubs utilizing the amenities adjacent to the marina. We will be running the fuel dock and managing the pool. We will rely on the experience and customer relationships of the existing marina team to manage slips. We’re preserving what makes Bay Bridge special while adding resources and capabilities to deliver an even better customer experience.

Please be aware there will be ongoing construction along the eastern end of the marina. A 32-room hotel and 14 duplex townhomes are scheduled for completion in early 2026. Hinckley is not affiliated with the developer for this project. Future homeowners will be able to rent slips, but they will not be prioritized in any situation. We will be the advocate for the marina’s slip holders and will actively monitor this building site. Please use caution and exercise patience. The developer and Hinckley are committed to making this situation as low impact as possible.

I’m very excited to meet everyone who calls Bay Bridge Marina their homeport. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and working together to make Bay Bridge even better. If you have any questions or would like to contact me, don’t hesitate to reach out. Here’s to an exciting 2025 boating season!

Sincerely,
Mike Bickford
