What's New at Crate's

 

New Service Facility Construction – The Lake Country Crew are pleased to report that our new 5,000 Square Foot Service Shop is progressing well and is scheduled for opening on April 1st 2007.  The first of it’s kind in the area, our new 3-bay shop is outfitted with 20-foot over head doors, allowing us to put vessels up to 60 feet inside for major service projects.  With 4,500 square feet of usable floor space, the new shop can accommodate up to a dozen vessels indoors at once for maximum efficiency.  


New Service Technician- In keeping with our commitment to Total Service Excellence, we’re thrilled to announce that Drew Watson will be joining our service team.  Drew is a graduate of the Georgian College Marine Technology program and comes to us with an excellent service background.  Drew’s energy & enthusiasm are a natural fit to our team and we look forward to exceeding your service expectations this coming season!


New Sign- If you’re in the Orillia area, be sure to sneak-a-peak at the new over-head sign at our Highway #12 entrance.  If you’ve ever had trouble locating our facility, you won’t miss us now- at 25 ft. tall our sign is visible from over a 0.5 kilometers!  As the saying goes, “The first sign of a quality business is a quality sign”.
