Charles and Leslie Pringle successfully negotiated the purchase of two City of Dunkirk Marinas, the former Chadwick Bay Marina and Stefan’s Marina, marrying the two under the new name, “Holiday Harbor at Chadwick Bay Marina.” Noticeable investment and upgrades are already underway to make the City marinas a premier regional and international destination for boaters traveling from Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Erie, Buffalo, Canada, and beyond. Customer service is a priority, therefore extended service hours, seven days a week will be provided. In addition, they will provide full service dock slip rentals, launch and haul out services, full gas and diesel fuel sales, full service repair and maintenance, retail/ship store sales, and new and used boat sales over time.
The CCIDA provided a loan through the AL Tech Revolving Loan Fund, along with sales and mortgage recording tax abatements related to the acquisition and improvements.
