In Praise of our Harbor Master

Posted

To the Editor,

Bion Pike’s letter of Friday 25 October 2024 to The Cricket editor is a testament of this gentleman’s dedication, and devotion to his job.
The fact he took the time from his busy schedule, to write this well written defense of accusations made by Susan Wadia-Ells in a prior Cricket letter, is a manifestation of Bion’s commitment to his job as Harbor Master of MBTS, a position he has held for 13 years.
From what I have been told, prior to Bion’s appointment, the administration of the MBTS harbor was fraught with many problems, to which I am sure many of the old-time boaters can attest. Bion’s vision for the MBTS harbor is in full display with the Tuck’s Point docks, the expansion of the Reed Park docks, and his leadership in applying for grants for the rebuilding of the Tucks Point Rotunda, and the further expansion of the Reed Park docks.
I am also confident he will prevail in building a proper Harbor Master office near the waterfront, further improving our boating community.
