Celebrating Over 60 Years on Lake Minnetonka


Jerry and Joyce Rockvam started the marina in Spring Park in 1961 with just a repair shop, wet slips, winter storage, and gasoline. These core services remain but are enhanced with certified Volvo and Mercruiser technicians, and four warehouses used for dry stack storage, wetslips, boat club, and a fleet of day rental pontoons.
