Women in Boating: Dock Confidently
By Alecia Croft | Marketing Assistant
Having confidence at the helm makes your boating experience all that much more enjoyable. Tom Ervin, president of Walstrom Marine, takes pride in leading Women in Boating events each year and is delighted with their continued success. This summer our customers have two opportunities to join Tom for one of these informative events, as he continues to facilitate a supportive community on the shorelines of Northern Michigan.
The Event
The idea behind Women in Boating is to empower women to get out on the water with confidence. One thing that makes this event stand out is the way it is structured. In addition to learning basic boating skills covered in the classroom, each participant is able to get behind the wheel, applying what they have learned on the water.
Women in Boating was established to help create communities. He specifically designed this event with our customers in mind. When everyone involved can confidently participate, feelings of comradery and community reach a whole new level.
Mastery takes time and repetition- practice is key. If you attended a Women in Boating event in the past, you are more than welcome to join us again. In fact, a highlight of our Women in Boating event is that it also works as a refresher. It’s the perfect opportunity to learn something new or simply refresh the knowledge you already possess.
Skills you will gain when attending
Join Us
Whether you are new to our community or a seasoned boater, we hope you will join us this summer on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan. For these events, we kindly ask that you register in advance.

There’s nothing quite like being well-versed in the rules of the waves and being able to navigate the water (and the dock) with confidence. We look forward to seeing you on the water.
