Kick Off Boating Season on June 5: Open-the-Season Barbecue & Patio Sale


The start of boating season is always worth celebrating, and there is no better way to launch into summer than a relaxed day at the marina with great food, familiar faces, and exceptional savings. On June 5, we’re hosting our Open-the-Season Barbecue & Patio Sale, featuring a limited-time clearance on non-current inventory—the same dependable marine gear and accessories you trust, now at pricing designed to help you gear up for the water.

Whether you’re a slip holder, a weekend cruiser, a first-time boat owner, or simply part of our local waterfront community, this event is the perfect opportunity to get your boat ready, stock up on essentials, and enjoy a casual afternoon at the marina.

Event Details at a Glance

Date: June 5

Location: At the marina patio and retail area

What’s happening: Barbecue + Patio Sale of non-current inventory

Bring your crew, bring your questions, and come ready to shop. Inventory is limited, and the best selection typically goes early.

What to Expect: A True “Ready-for-the-Water” Day

Our Open-the-Season event is designed to be both practical and fun. It’s part celebration, part spring commissioning support, and part clearance sale—everything you need to feel confident for the months ahead.

1) The Barbecue: A Marina Tradition

Nothing says “boating season” like a classic barbecue by the water. Stop by for a bite, catch up with other boaters, and enjoy the atmosphere that makes marina life so special. If you’re new to the area or new to boating, this is also an easy way to meet fellow boaters and get connected before the busy season hits.

2) The Patio Sale: Non-Current Inventory, Current Value

We’ll be setting up a patio-style sale featuring non-current inventory—items from prior seasons, last-year colors, and discontinued packaging. These products are ideal for boaters who value performance and practicality and love finding a deal.

This is a smart time to pick up replacement items, backups, or upgrades you may have been putting off. Many boat owners use this sale to “fill the gaps” and avoid mid-season rush purchases at full price.

What You Might Find at the Patio Sale

Selection can vary, but the goal is to offer a broad mix of useful boating and marina essentials. Depending on availability, the patio sale may include:

  • Boat accessories and everyday hardware
  • Docking and mooring gear (lines, fenders, tie-down essentials)
  • Marine cleaning and maintenance supplies
  • Safety and convenience items to keep onboard
  • Watersports and seasonal gear (assorted items)
  • Apparel and marina favorites (limited sizing and styles)

Because these are clearance items, quantities are limited and selection is first-come, first-served. If there’s something you know you’ll need this season, arriving early is the best strategy.

Why This Sale Matters (Even If You Already “Have Everything”)

Experienced boaters know that being prepared is what makes weekends on the water smooth. The Open-the-Season Patio Sale is an excellent time to stock up on the little things that often get overlooked until you need them most.

Consider using the event to:

  • Replace worn docking lines before they become a problem
  • Add spare fenders for busy docks and guest tie-ups
  • Refresh cleaning supplies for an easier season of upkeep
  • Upgrade convenience items that improve comfort on board

The right small purchases now can prevent downtime later—especially once summer crowds and peak-season demand pick up.

A Great Day for Slip Holders, Local Boaters, and New Customers

This event is for everyone who loves the boating lifestyle. If you’re already part of our marina community, it’s a great chance to reconnect, check in on seasonal plans, and pick up supplies. If you’re visiting for the first time, it’s a welcoming opportunity to get to know the marina, browse the sale, and see what we offer throughout the season.

We encourage families to attend, too. The marina is at its best when the community is here—enjoying the waterfront, the energy of the season, and the simple pleasure of a day outside.

Tips to Make the Most of the June 5 Patio Sale

If you want the best selection and the fastest, easiest experience, keep these quick tips in mind:

  • Arrive early for the widest assortment of clearance items.
  • Bring a quick checklist of what you need for commissioning and early-season boating.
  • Plan for limited quantities—non-current inventory moves quickly.
  • Ask questions if you’re unsure which products fit your boat or your dock setup.

Make It Your Season Start

Boating season goes fast. The best way to enjoy it is to start strong—well-stocked, well-prepared, and connected to your marina community. On June 5, stop in for the barbecue, shop the patio sale, and take advantage of clearance pricing on marine gear and boat accessories you can use all season long.

We look forward to seeing you at the marina. Come hungry, bring a friend, and get ready for a great summer on the water.
