THE HISTORY OF MARSTON'S MARINA Just after World War II, Bill Marston and his partner Lester Pray bought property on the banks of the Saco River. They had a meager bank account and boundless energy. Together they developed what was to become Glenhaven Circle. When the two friends built homes for themselves, Bill also built a dock for his boat. It wasn't long before the neighbors asked if they could keep their boats at the dock, and the rest is history. Dad Marston realized he might have the makings of a little side business and so Riverside Anchorage was born. Mr. Marston sold the business to his children in 1996 and he died in 2000. The name of the marina was officially changed to "Marston's Marina" because that's what people had been informally calling it for many many years. Our father always envisioned the marina as a place where the average family could keep a boat. We still keep that principal in mind today as we strive to provide a clean, safe, and affordable environment where people can spend time enjoying their boats. |
In loving memory
