Bernie's
original idea was to start a business to produce injection molded plastic
products (Bernie's field of expertise as a Engineer). He and his brother
Robert, constructed the first building in 1989 on property he had bought
from his mother.To pay for the building the first few years Bernie
decided to store boats and cars. After the first couple of years passed
by, he realized there was a high demand for boat storage. Due in part
to his love of boating He then decided to focus his efforts in this
area.
The main facility, when first built consisted of 5000 sq. ft. It was expanded
in 1992 to 6600 sq. to accommodate more boat storage. Bernie also saw that there
was a need for self-storage and expanded into this business in the early 1990's
by taking a small portion (400 sq. ft.) of the main building to provide self-storage
units to the public. In 1995 an additional 400 sq. ft. (portable storage units)
was purchased to satisfy the ever increasing demand for self-storage. Again in
1998 an additional 500 sq. ft (portable storage units) was added to deal with
the demand.
In 1997 the demand for indoor boat storage outpaced the capacity he had to offer,
so additional boat storage space was acquired by building a modern state of the
art boat rack storage building. The new building has the capacity to store up
to 45 boats.
Sales over the past 5 years have grown at an average rate of 42.6 %. In 1998
we began to focus on providing high quality boat repair service. We hired one
full time mechanic to service and repair boats. A section of the main storage
building was partitioned in 1999 to accommodate the need for boat servicing repair.
