For anyone considering a dock or lift system, you could not do better than to choose Bulmann…read more My experience with Bulmann is from working with Chris Binger over the course of the past six weeks or so. I purchased a boat from Dry Harbour in Charlevoix and needed a lift to keep the boat safe and dry. I knew from years of looking at lifts and seeing them all over Lake Charlevoix this was the best constructed and best looking lift. So, in working through Dry Harbour (a Bulmann dealer) I was put in touch with Chris. Total professionalism and attention to detail. I am a very particular guy and was completely happy. I have a property on the South Arm of the lake and have a deep water application. Chris came out several times to fit the lift to the conditions and then Bulmann delivered the unit right for my needs. Several times they needed to level the lift, as the lift settled into the bottom silt and then again when the weight of the boat was on the lift. Each time they didn't settle for good enough but took the time to do it right and get it level. The crew led by Kurt and Rick were extremely friendly, careful and helpful. My dream of a new boat and lift to hold it came true this past weekend and all along Bulmann was going to be part of the picture. I made the best choice for me and encourage anyone out there considering a lift system to not miss taking a long look at Bulmann's product - you couldn't find a better choice. Thank you guys -

I…read morecould not have been more impressed from the sales process with Chris Binger to the install crew with 15 years of experience. I was replacing a cheaper lift that was deeply stuck in the mud bottom and has caused me grief for years. The experience of Neal and his assistants made all the difference to a great removal and installation process. The design and construction of the lift is far superior to what I had previously. If you take pride in your boat and value the time you have on the water buy the best lift, buy a Bulmann!

Nothing beats a day on the water in Northern Michigan. A week before our vacation I rented a boat…read morefor our family. Unfortunately, the forecast called for a cold and rainy day for the Monday our boat was booked. The company told me they have a no refund policy unless it's really raining, but the cold alone isn't fun when on a boat. Fortunately, they were very accommodating even with their policy and let us move the boat to a few days later when the weather forecast looked perfect. We had a boat big enough for 14 people (very roomy for our party of 5) and a tube. My husband doesn't have much boating experience, but didn't have any issues after a 3 minute lesson from the friendly woman at Boyne Watersports. The highlight for the kids was definitely the tubing. They have 2 types of tubes: the laying down ones my kids use at camp (for 3) and another one that's more like a couch (for 2). We opted for the "couch" tube and the kids absolutely loved it. They went again and again and again. By the end they were asking for a "hells ride" and flipping all over the place. We wish we had taken them up on instructions for how to dock the boat because the kids started to get hungry and we passed by their new favorite restaurant, The Landing. However, my husband was too nervous that he would crash the boat attempting to dock so we waited to eat until we got back. 4 hours was the minimum, but I think 3 hours is plenty. It's also a very expensive outing, but was one of the highlights of our trip up north! I'd definitely use this company again. They did mention you could rent boats for less time if you walk up, although the gorgeous day we rented was a busy one for them so probably best to rent in advance.
