Hello Shipyard Friends and Fellow Boaters!
Somewhere under the snowflakes and ice shoves, spring is waiting to burst out the sun and fun we all crave! Are you ready for it? I sure am! This year we’re excited to announce many new updates at Shipyard Marine, including the position change of Chad VanderKelen. Chad has moved into boat sales. You might know him from helping you find boat parts when he was in our parts department. Better yet, now he is helping you find the entire boat! Brandon Hockers, our newest addition, is now taking care of parts, and we also have added a few more to our detailing crew.
Speaking of detailing, we have just opened our Shipshape Detailing Center at 1651 Velp Avenue in Green Bay. A new division at Shipyard Marine where our signature service is our Shine n’ Float and Shine n’ Fly detailing packages. Whether you’re away by boat or plane, With Shine n’ Float or Shine n’ Fly, you don’t have to pay loads of money just to stay in the Green Bay airport parking lot or feel bad leaving a dirty car behind at the marina. You can have your car detailed and ready just before you return from your trip away. Simply call us and we can give you more details…When you’re gone we shine!
What else should you watch out for? Shipyard TV will be an online show featuring yours truly reporting on special events, interviews, boat tests, and boating lifestyle. It’ll be a fast-paced, 3-5 minute entertaining clip guaranteed to get you excited about going boating. Stay tuned for more!
Also, our clubhouse just got a new facelift! We recently installed new maple cabinetry and granite countertops. Now rack customers can enjoy entertaining your crew in style before or after hitting the water.
Meeting at the clubhouse is a great way to start off your day of boating. Speaking of starting off in style – thanks to all who attended our annual Crack the Ice Party. Even though this season seems to be taking its sweet time to get going, getting together with friends to talk boating always warms up the environment. Make sure to check out the pictures in the previous blog post!
See you out on the docks very soon!

President, Shipyard Marine
