Washington Trust finances bulkhead replacement at Snug Harbor Marina
November 12, 2026
WESTERLY, R.I. – The Washington Trust Company (Washington Trust) has provided financing for a bulkhead replacement project at Snug Harbor Marina, a longtime fixture of the Snug Harbor waterfront in East Matunuck and popular destination for Rhode Island's boating and fishing community.
Owned and operated by Al and Patricia Conti and their family for more than 45 years, Snug Harbor Marina is replacing the bulkhead to protect its shoreside property from erosion, storm damage and the daily effects of marine activity. The project also includes rebuilding the main dock, which serves the marine gas and diesel fueling station and provides access to all other marina services.
Located on Point Judith Pond in the East Matunuck section of South Kingstown, Snug Harbor Marina serves past and future recreational and commercial boaters, charter fishing customers, and visitors from across the region.
“We thank Washington Trust and their staff for making the financing process professional, accommodating and timely,” said the Conti family.
