Robinhood Marine Center (Derecktor Robinhood)

What Robinhood Marine Center (Derecktor Robinhood) does

Robinhood Marine Center, operating as Derecktor Robinhood Marine Center and legally structured as Derecktor Maine, LLC, is a full-service marina and yacht yard located on Riggs Cove in Georgetown, Maine. The facility is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Derecktor Shipyards (Fort Pierce, FL) and operates on a historic waterfront with buildings dating to the late 1700s. Its physical infrastructure comprises 115 slips and 82 protected moorings serving vessels up to 110 feet, supported by a 50-ton open-end travelift, a 35-ton Con-O-Lift trailer, an 18-ton mobile spar crane, an in-house machine shop, welding, paint/spray booths, and ABYC-certified technicians. Service offerings span dockage (seasonal, monthly, weekly, daily), mooring rentals, indoor and outdoor winter/summer storage, comprehensive yacht repair and refit (mechanical, electrical, rigging, fiberglass, wood, steel, aluminum), an on-site fuel dock, and three wholly-owned houseboat vacation rentals under the Riggs Cove Rentals brand (The Tessie Ann, The Charles Andrew, The Nancy Lou). Adjacent businesses include Spartan Marine Hardware (custom bronze fabrication) and a co-located restaurant partnership, The Osprey.

Revenue mechanics are predominantly transactional and seasonal. Dockage is priced per linear foot ($5.50 daily to $135/ft seasonal) plus electricity; moorings run $45/day to $1,850/season; winter storage is priced per square foot ($9-$14/sf) with non-refundable deposits; labor is hourly by skill class ($80-$120/hr) with a 3% environmental surcharge; and houseboat rentals are $350-$550/night with a three-night minimum. Channel mix is direct-to-consumer for the marina and a sales-led service desk (Service Manager Andy Werwaiss) for yacht work, supplemented by Dockwa for transient online bookings, Constant Contact for email marketing, and a small social presence on Facebook and Twitter.

Customers split across two primary segments: yacht owners (sail and power, vessels up to 110 feet) requiring seasonal dockage, mooring, repair, refit, and storage, and vacationers/leisure travelers booking houseboat accommodations with no boating experience required. The company is privately held, was acquired and rebranded by Derecktor Shipyards partners in 2016, has 11-50 employees, and has earned Marinas.com "Boaters Choice" recognition for six consecutive years and "Elite Fleet" status in 2023.

Direct peers

• Hinckley Yacht Services: New England-based yacht builder and full-service yard with marina and refit operations in Maine and Rhode Island. Directly comparable on yacht service, marina, and high-end customer base in the same Northeast cruising market.
• Front Street Shipyard: Full-service yacht yard and shipyard in Belfast, Maine offering haul-out, storage, and refit services. Directly comparable as a Maine-based yacht service competitor with similar seasonal dynamics and vessel-size capacity.
• Portland Yacht Services: Full-service yacht yard in Portland, Maine providing haul-out, storage, and repair services. Comparable as a regional Maine marina/service yard serving the same coastal New England customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Safe Harbor Marinas: Largest U.S. marina and yacht service operator with over 130 locations. Provides marina, storage, and service at scale; comparable through overlapping slip/dockage and boatyard offerings but covers many geographies and vessel segments.
• IGY Marinas: International network of marinas serving superyachts and recreational vessels. Comparable as a multi-location marina operator with premium positioning, though primarily focused on transient superyacht berthing rather than full-service refit.
• Derecktor Shipyards: Parent company of Robinhood Marine Center, based in Fort Pierce, Florida, with a long-standing reputation in mega-yacht, commercial, and America's Cup boatbuilding and service. Comparable because it shares technical capabilities and brand equity with Robinhood, though operating at much larger vessel scales.

Regional players

• Brewer Yacht Yards: Network of marinas and yacht yards across New England (Connecticut through Maine). Comparable as a regional peer offering seasonal dockage, winter storage, and yacht service, though distributed across multiple sites rather than concentrated in one harbor.
• Mystic Shipyard: Full-service boatyard and storage facility in Mystic, Connecticut with haul-out, mast stepping, and refit services. Comparable as a Northeast yacht service and storage competitor, primarily serving a different geography.
