Vigor Shipyards

A local place where some of the boats I service are docked, and we also service there warehouses to make sure they are up to code and safe for the workers.

I really don’t know what to say about Vigor Shipyards. It’s a shipyard for goodness sake. I don’t like extremely industrial areas unless they’re a backdrop for a sick car shoot, but I’ll try to post a good review in comparison to how a shipyard should be (if that makes sense), I suppose.
There is a shop that spray paints right on the side of the parking lot so it’s a «park at your own risk» type place unless you go more down to the Rolls Royce parking garage but that seems inconvenient when you could be parking right in front. It’s difficult to find parking in the front depending on the time you go. I pick up my husband here and the stalls are numbered so I try not to park in them but you’re not allowed to not be in a stall. Hmph.
There’s a lot of sea gulls here that are annoying.
Getting in and out of here/​the Harbor Island area is terrible. If you get stuck at the train crossing be ready to wait a while. The roads are terrible with pot holes and uneven concrete where the rail crossing is. You have to drive slow and maneuver around it to protect your car. There’s also a lot of semi trucks that kind of freak me out.
A huge issue that pisses me off is that the speed limit here is 30mph (or slower, I don’t remember at this moment), but I ALWAYS drive the limit because it seems really dangerous to speed here and there is ALWAYS someone tailing me!!! A truck pulled shoulder to speed around me! WTF?! THAT“S SO DANGEROUS. I’ve even seen a gas truck run a solid red light.
