Your Loyalty
We are launching a
brand new loyalty card
program at your marina.
All marina customers
will receive a card and
full program details
before the 2020 boating
season.
The program provides a
percentage cash back on certain purchases at the marina.
The accumulated cash back can be used to make
purchases at the marina (certain restrictions to apply).
We are excited to offer this program to all of our valued
marina customers.
And if you're thinking of moving to our marina, ask
yourself, does my current marina provide loyalty rewards
like this all season long? Why would you want to boat
anywhere else?
Don't forget – we have plenty of space for personal items in
our rental storage units. It's the perfect place for your
outdoor furniture that is too big for the dock box. This
solution avoids damage or items ending up in the water
with some of the wicked winds we've been experiencing.
Contact us for details.
