Seaswirl Boats was once a subsidiary brand under the Outboard Marine Corporation, which was at one time the world’s largest producer of outboard motors. Until today, avid boaters are still looking for original Seaswirl boats from the 90s because they are just that good. The company used to manufacture boats that range in size from 16 feet to 30 feet. They reached their peak in the late 90s and early 2000s as one of the prime brands in water vessels. Seaswirl was once one of the biggest names in the marine industry. Read on to know more about Seaswirl Boats and why avid boaters still look for them until now. Seaswirl was once a top brand in the boating world but succumbed to the economic depression in the 2000s. Seaswirl, a sub-brand under Striper boats, was a boat builder in the marine industry that offered various inshore and offshore fishing boats ranging from 16 to 30 feet. Who are they, and why don’t you hear about them much these days? What are Seaswirl boats? I would recommend the Coconut Ice Cream with hot fudge on it, or if you’re a Chocolate-PB fan, they have one that’s a Chocolate base with chunks of Reese’s cups in it.Back in the 90s, when boating was booming in popularity, a brand was synonymous with quality – the Seaswirl boats. Sorry you had a lousy experience I would highly recommend Drawbridge next time you’re in town (don’t even bother with the place across the street from Drawbridge- I can’t even think of their name offhand). And for the hometown ambiance of sitting roadside on a sticky picnic table bench… The only time I go to Sea Swirl for ice cream is if I want a quick, simple soft-serve twist (sometimes dipped in chocolate). Only tourists go there for their ice cream (rather than Drawbridge) because they don’t know any better. However: for locals, Sea Swirl is known for their fried clams- that’s why everyone goes.
SEA SWIRL MYSTIC WINDOWS
I do have to say I’m surprised you had to flag someone down to serve you though, usually it’s hopping in the summer and they have 2 people manning the windows at all times. Sea Swirl Seafood Restaurant and Ice CreamĪs a Mystic/Stonington native, I must ask- what were you thinking going to Sea Swirl rather than the Drawbridge? As an ice cream fanatic, you should have done your research before beginning your trip! Between 6 and 7 pm, I’m sure they do brisk dinner business, but I expected to see more cones, not just families gorging themselves on fried fare. It’s surprising for a place like this that there really aren’t people here that are just eating ice cream. This place is reknowned for their fried clams, but I’ve got a bagel with lox in the car and opt out of the food. It’s a nice cone to eat while seaside, but next time I’m in Mystic, I’m going to try the place right at the drawbridge. The chocolate ice cream is simple and the peanut butter ice cream takes up a third of the mass of the cone. There were two tiny scoops placed precariously atop the cone, with serious effort seeming to have been made to prevent any ice cream from going inside. What emerged is the tiniest cone that I have yet encountered, with the small checking in even smaller than some kiddie cones that I have sampled. My waitress disappeared into the back of the shop as though ice cream really wasn’t that significant an offering here. Both the banana chocolate chip and the cotton candy seemed like potentially terrible ideas so I found solace in chocolate peanut butter. I was looking for something interesting and different to order. They have both soft serve and hard pack ice cream and the two each have their own pricing scales.
Instead I nearly have to flag someone down inside to come take my order. The place has the look of a classic roadside scoop shop, and I half expect to be buzzed by a waitress on rollerskates. As ice cream goes, this place has been serving it for over 50 years with the first half of its existence as a Carvel and the past 23 operated by the Blaney family. I did pick up a visitors guide and made it to the only food entry that mentioned ice cream.Ĭonveniently located at the intersection of the two numbered roads in Mystic (1 & 27), Sea Swirl was easy to find. I followed signs for some sort of tourist bureau and found a darkened building with ads for all the neighboring hotels. I pulled off in Mystic knowing that it was my only chance at finding an unfamiliar cone, because I had a destination in mind if I made it all the way to New London. Neither was, and forty five minutes later I found a Chocolate Peanut Butter cone on Connecticut’s South coast. That’s what it seemed when I pulled off 95 in Exeter, Rhode Island figuring that one of two locations on the same road would be viable. Sometimes the best laid plans are attached to ancient maps that send you on wild goose chases through ghost towns.
