Martingale Marine
Serving Rhode Island & Boston
Your boat, handled.
I look after a small number of boats so their owners don't have to — the right people, held to the right standard, without you living in the weeds.
Hi, I'm Daniel.
I've spent 25 years working on boats — as a sailor, a yard hand, a boatbuilder, a captain, and a rigger — and as VP of a five-star rigging company, where my service management put us ahead of everyone. That service management outgrew yacht rigging, and Martingale was born.
In the trenches that long, I know how this industry actually works — and the real value I bring is helping you navigate its treacherous waters. When something's wrong with your boat, you call one person, and it gets handled: the right people, held to the right standard, no runaround.

Want to see how I keep a boat?
I keep a living record of every boat I look after — every system, every bit of gear, every job. Start yours and you'll see exactly what that looks like from the inside. It takes a minute, you don't have to finish, and I'll fill in the rest with you.

I send the occasional note on keeping a boat right — what I'm seeing on the docks, and what's worth doing before it bites you. No spam, just useful.
