New Yardarm Motel owners blend lodging with artistry

Rick DeCoyte and Sabrina DeTurk are the new owners of the Yardarm Motel, a roadside motel since 1951. Set next to the home of Marlboro Packard, a master shipbuilder who built the last and the largest ship, the William H. Connor, in Searsport, it is a landmark to Searsport residents and Route 1 travelers.
