Freedom Boat Club

With expansion across New England, Oyster Harbors Marine sets up shop in York.

Founded in 1989, the Florida-based company today has hundreds of franchises. The Maine locations have steadily expanded along the coast.

A topping off ceremony is held at 201 Federal St., a boat club finds winter storage inland, an Old Port hotel is dedicated and an engineering firm will have a short move to its new space.
