    Going on about 3-4 years with them now. If you’re seeking more than just a place to dock your boat, look no further than Tanya and Bill Spearman’s dock service. Let me share why their service has become an indispensable part of my boating experience.

    Tanya and Bill welcomed us into the traverse city boating community with open arms. Their warm smiles and genuine interest in ensuring every boater’s needs are met make stepping onto their dock feel like coming home.

    I cannot recommend Tanya and Bill Spearman’s dock service enough. With their genuine care, and personal touch, they’ve created a boater’s oasis that feels like a home away from home.

  • ★★★★★ Couldn't Be Happier!

    Dock and Hoist Services helped a good friend of mine with their dock installation, as well as recommended a hoist and put that in as well. They couldn't be happier! The crew was polite, did their job swiftly and accurately, and left the beach area clean. Dock and Hoist Services will be highly recommended to all of our East Bay friends!! Thank you!!
