Mike Wall

Mike Wall is the parts counter guy. Serving the needs of customers at the parts counter is one of his key responsibilities. Writing work orders, managing parts orders and servicing outboard motors are all part of Mike's daily routine. An avid boater, Mike was a customer for years before he came on board in June 2013. Mike's extensive boating background has taught him a thing or two about boats. After a 16 year career in manufacturing, Mike was ready for a change and we were pleased to add him to our service department team.

Jim Heighington

Jim sold the joint and retired over 25 years ago but his DNA can still be found all over this place. The antique outboards that grace the walls are all fine examples of his workmanship. When Jim isn't restoring antique outboards he might be trimming a hedge here or watering a flower there. Not much slows this guy down.
