Put-in-Bay Docks Open After Extensive Upgrades
Put-in-Bay Village Boat Docks Open to Boaters June 21st- On Saturday, June 21st, after delay after delay, a portion of the Village’s Boat Docks were opened to the boating public. The outside wall facing Fox’s Dock (aka Jet Dock) immediately filled with boaters anxious to enjoy the perfect early-summer day. A portion of C-Dock inside the outer sheet piling dock was also available to boaters.
The rest of the dock remained as a construction zone as workers continued to put in the floating docks, which will now come off C-Dock and project into the water toward the DeRivera Park Dock. Although multiple problems have delayed the scheduled completion of the project, there is only one thing to say, and that’s, “The boaters are going to love it when they dock at the Village’s newly renovated boat docks.”
The Put-in-Bay Village docks will now offer some of the best boat docks available to boaters in the Great Lakes. Problems that plagued boaters docking at the public docks in the past have been eliminated. There’s plenty of electricity and water, solid uprights, a beautiful new deck, and added protection from storms for those docking inside the facility.
It is an excellent upgrade from what was previously there and should offer first-class dockage for years to come. Initial responses from the Put-in-Bay Boating crowd have been very favorable. With the docks added capacity, we should expect to see Put-in-Bay Dock revenues increase as well.
There is a Put-in-Bay Facebook page on the Internet for updates about the Village’s public docks. It is “Put-in-Bay Village Docks, A&C.” Put-in-Bay Village Docks open to all boaters on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are not taken.
