After years of renovation, the Gertrude M. Wagner building was opened to our customers on June 14, 2002. This building houses private showers, laundromat, lounge area, and telephone connections for computer workstations. Secure access is provided to our slip holders through a computerized key system.
This building was the summer home of Ernest Utsch, Sr. and his wife Gertrude, Ernest Utsch, Jr. and his wife Rose Marie Utsch, and their three children Ernest Utsch, III, Charles P. Utsch and Rose Marie Utsch.When the Utsch's began to rent slip space, the front porch served as their first office and supply store. The attic provided overnight lodging for many fishermen, and the dining room was always open to tired and hungry travelers.
The business gradually outgrew its tiny office and new buildings were added. Likewise the family outgrew the house and moved to the other side of bridge. Sentimentality and a sense of history prevented the demolition of this, the original building. We're proud that it has been renovated and is once again an important part of Utsch's Marina.
