Winter storage/dry dock locations in northern Lake Huron/Michigan?

Authored by Louis E. Cohen

Is there an easy way to find winter storage locations on this site?  Or, better yet, can someone suggest some winter storage/dry dock locations for a 30 foot sail boat in northern Lake Huron/Lake Michigan (US side)?

Louis--

I don't think there's an easy way to find storage places, other than to look at each harbor report.

In northern Lake Huron/Michigan, the "major" storage spots for sailboats are (in descending order of number of sailboats stored):

Shepler's Marine, Mackinaw City
Irish Boat Shop, Charlevoix and Harbor Springs
Walstrom Marine, Cheboygan
Bergmann Marine, Charlevoix
Mertaugh Marine, Hessel and DeTour Village

There are other places to store, but the above are the main ones for sailboats. Other people may have other suggestions.

Cheers,
