We are excited to usher in a new era of leadership at Haven Harbour Marina Resorts – one that builds on its reputation as the premier yachting destination on the Chesapeake Bay. Charlie Petosa, who has served with dedication as Managing Director since 2021, has amicably concluded his role following a thoughtful and well-planned leadership transition. We extend our sincere gratitude to Charlie for his contributions and leadership and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Ed Cecil has assumed the role of general manager of Haven Harbour. Ed brings an extraordinary depth of experience and knowledge to this role, having worked at Haven Harbour South (formerly the Sailing Emporium) since May 14, 1982. In fact, today marks Ed's remarkable 43rd anniversary with the marina – a milestone that also signifies the beginning of an exciting new chapter. 

Ed's enduring dedication to our community, extensive expertise in marina operations and unwavering commitment to customer service make him exceptionally well-suited for this leadership role.

We are grateful for the continued trust of our customers as we build on our legacy of excellence with your valued support.
