What we do
The Goat Yard keeps boats stored, winterized and maintained. Sail and power get the same crew, with decades of engine, gelcoat and finish experience behind every job.
Protect your investment through Michigan winters, or keep the boat on the hard between seasons with a yard that documents every step.
Full seasonal shutdown and spring wake-up for sail and power. Engines, systems and rig handled by a crew that does this hundreds of times a season.
Sail or power, we keep boats running. Certified marine technicians with extensive powerboat background.
Making your powerboat look nicer — concours-level compounding, coatings and brightwork.
Haul-out, pressure wash and bottom care with a clean handoff back to the water.
