Allen Harbor Marina Quonset Hut - North Kingstown, Rhode Island USA - Quonset Huts on Waymarking.com

The Town of North Kingstown owns and operates the Allen Harbor Marina, which has 85 moorings, 100 slips and a public boat ramp. The marina is open May through October. The boat ramp is open year round and is free of charge. There is no fee for parking.

With a solid coat of gray paint and white trim, this Quonset hut looks to be well-maintained. The structure is oriented along a southwest-to-northeast axis. A steel entry door and an overhead door with three windows are on the southwest end. Both doors are white.

Colorful signs, each about 4' x 8' and framed with brown wood trim, are mounted on either side of the garage bay door. To the left is a panel with a blue oval background. The words "Allen Harbor Marina - North Kingstown, RI" and two, five-pointed stars surround a clipper ship relief. To the right is a board painted with a billowing triangular nautical pennant. The blue flag has a white triangle with the letters A-H-M stenciled in red at the short end. Three seagulls are flying in the background by the pointed end.
