The crew of Coast Guard Station Eaton’s Neck welcomes you to the dedication ceremony of their new 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art boathouse. This boathouse replaces the previous, which was destroyed by a fire Christmas Eve 2008.
The new boathouse, funded by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, includes a drive-through boat bay, a new launching ramp, maintenance shops and offices for personnel. The new building is designed to resemble the previous boathouse, built in 1936, and blend with the existing historical buildings on site.
