Meet the Owners

A family run and operated business

Dockside was founded in 2020 with a shared passion for boats and the lake, driven by one simple goal: to provide elite service in everything we do.

Colin’s love for the water began at just 4 years old when he first water skied, and his passion only grew, eventually competing at the national level. After purchasing his first ski boat post-college, he dove into mastering boat maintenance and detailing.

Alexi, too, grew up with a deep connection to the lake, spending summers on her uncle’s boat in Harbor Springs, Michigan, where she honed the skills of meticulous boat care.

Together, their combined passion for detail and their love for life on the water has propelled an unbelievable first 5 years of service to the community.

Our commitment is to continue listening to the evolving needs of our customers and constantly pivot to meet their needs, both now and into the future.
