Egret Tours Marina

Egret Tours Marina is a location and settlement in the Commonwealth $$

Background
Founded in 2042, the marina of Egret Tours offered recreational activities including tours of the Charles River before the Great War. Hour-long tours were offered every two hours between the hours of 8 AM and 4 PM. Daily fishing tours were also available. By 2287, the marina has become the home of Phyllis Daily, a reclusive woman who is convinced she is a synth after accidentally killing her grandchild.

Layout
The marina features a partly destroyed brick building where Phyllis resides, an enclosed dry dock, a boat shed, and a Red Rocket filling station for watercraft. Several mines and tripwires are found around and inside the various marina structures when it is first encountered.

The marina should prove easily defensible as there are few vectors of approach, with attackers mostly invading from the small cliff next to the boat shed. Such attacks are frequent due to the random encounter spawn point on the drawbridge nearby to the north. The presence of deep water allows for water purifiers, and there is sufficient dirt for crops.

The settlement offers advantages while in Survival mode. It is fairly close to the edge of the Glowing Sea, and comes with both a weapons workbench and a cooking station in Phyllis' residence.

Notable loot

 * Nuka-Cola Quantum - On the floor of the Red Rocket station at the end of the pier.
 * Wasteland Survival Guide issue #3 - On the counter of the Red Rocket station at the end of the pier, above the brain fungus.
 * Teddy bear that is much larger than normal - On the bus on the drawbridge nearby to the north, in the driver's seat.

Appearances
Egret Tours Marina appears only in Fallout 4.
