When anchored in Sprout Island cove and the "Toad Hall" came in to the bay for a night, Capt. Terry and the owner went over to visit. Capt.

Echo Bay

Echo Bay has 2 marinas "The Ringleader" Moored at Carol and Jerry's Marina called The Windsong Sea Village. It is across the small bay from The Echo Bay Marina, that was going through a change of ownership and management at that time.
it also had a fuel dock and store, although the store was open the fuel dock was not.
Less than a mile south of the store on the entrance point was a museum, run by a local fisherman Bill Proctor that had filled up a small cabin with things he has collected from the sea ,woods and Islands, that you can visit. Bill accepts donations ($), and has stories to tell, and T-Shirts , books and Art pieces to sell that you can buy as treasures, gifts, or mementos.
Back at the marina we are invited to dinner on the dock, potluck, by Carol, with other marina guest.
