Bernie and Dave sell the cows on their farm to focus on the marina.

Dave takes over the lease at O’Hara’s Landing. That he same year, he meets his wife Mickey. He sells her gas for her boat. She never leaves.

More than 40 years ago, Mary, who still runs our restaurant and makes the best pancakes around, joined us at the marina. Barry began in the boathouse shortly after. Fred has built a part of every building on site. Collin, an award winning mechanic, started with us in 1994. They are all still with us. We consider our employees family.
