Darcy and her siblings, move in with grandma, restore an old boat

I read this book in the early 90's but do not remember how old it was then.  It was a series of books where Darcy (I think) and her siblings had to move in with their grandmother.  It seems it was in a coastal New England town.  I thought the name of one book might be Darcy's Song, but when I search that I am just finding the Pride and Prejudice -inspired Mr. Darcy books, and another Darcy's Song that is not right.  I read several of these books, and it's making me crazy that I can't find them now.  Thank you!!!

Your post jogged a memory of a made for tv movie starring Patty Duke as the grandmother.  Searching for a movie about siblings who move in with their grandmother turned up "Dicey's Song".  So I think you must be looking for this book:

Actually, it's a series of books. the first of which is "Homecoming", where the siblings actually move in with the grandmother.

excellant book!  There were about three, maybe 4 in the series but Homecoming is the 1st.

Thank you!  Thank you!  Yes, that's it...Dicey's Song, Homecoming, Cynthia Voight wrote a couple of other books I read at that time too, I will have to search again and see what I find!
