I can’t believe it but Echo is going to close the marina down. I can’t believe they couldn’t find someone to take it over.

The launch ramp will still be open however, but man why do they have to close the last place on the overton arm.

here is the article in the MV Progress

That is not good news, for sure. If I had a few million to throw at it, I would. I wonder why forever resorts wasn’t interested in taking it over for good. I guess they figure that they’ll be the only marina on that side anyway, and it’s cheaper to run just one marina.

problem is it costs over 60,000.00 bucks to move the marina when the lake keeps fluctuating.
