Marina Best Practices

Sewell’s Marina continues to focus on the sustainability of the environment.

1. We build our own docks to ensure that they are environmentally sound, such as using encapsulated floatation.

2. We have produced garbage / recycling compound enclosures to provide these services to our customers.

3. We are working closely and on a consistent basis with Mercury Marine to ensure our Boat Rental and Sea Safari motors are fuel efficient and always brand new, every season.

4. We utilize an oatmeal based cleaner for scrubbing our boats.

5. Oil container recycling is available at the fuel dock.

6. Daily walks throughout the marina area, to ensure a safe environment for all.
