Avalon and Stone Harbor Weekly Update October 21, 2021

October 21, 2021 By Bill and Kay Leahy


Smuggler’s Cove, the bait & tackle shop familiar to so many Avalon & Stone Harbor boaters, was torn down last week.  Aerial photo by Tim Fleming; demolition photo provided by Jayne Lare, of Smuggler’s Cove.

REMEMBERING SMUGGLER’S COVE:  Stone Harbor icon Smuggler’s Cove closed its door last fall, after 47 years in business.  Last week demolition crews tore down the building that stood on the site since the 1940s.  Earlier this year Villa Maria, another iconic Stone Harbor building, was demolished so it could be replaced with a smaller building suitable for year-round use.

AVALON’S FALL DUNE GRASS PLANTING takes place on Saturday, October 23rd at 8:30am.  Volunteers are needed!  Help strengthen Avalon’s dunes, which provide important storm protection to the whole island.  After a morning of planting, a light lunch will be offered to volunteers at Avalon Community Hall.  If you are interested in volunteering, please call Sue Keen at (609) 967-5924 or Chuck McDonnell at (609) 967-3066 to RSVP.

BEACH SWEEPS are also taking place in Avalon & Stone Harbor on Saturday, beginning at 9am.  Help keep our beaches beautiful!  Volunteers will gather at Avalon’s 30th Street beach path, and at Stone Harbor’s 95th Street beach.  Volunteers are asked to register in advance: https://cleanoceanaction.org/beach-sweeps/beach-sweep-registration-form   Supplies will be provided, however, volunteers may bring their own bucket for trash collection if they wish.

MARKET STATS: The number of sales in September increased over August, while falling short of September 2020.  The median sale price increased 18% to $2,547,500 over September 2020, while the numbere of active listings fell to 85.  For a detailed look at the market see the latest Long & Foster Market Minute Report.

“SAILDRONE IS GOING WHERE NO RESEARCH VESSEL HAS EVER VENTURED.”  NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, has employed a fleet of five “saildrones” to collect data in the midst of storm conditions on the open ocean.  The specially equipped sail-powered drones can sail through 50-foot waves in hurricane conditions, while gathering data and reporting it back to NOAA laboratories.  Officials will use the data to provide better weather forecasting models.  Read an article about Saildrone here: https://www.noaa.gov/news-release/world-first-ocean-drone-captures-video-from-inside-hurricane
