Trained
Artist
Sculpts
a
New
Department
For
Spicer's
Boat
City!
Don’t
be
alarmed
if
in
your
travels
around
the
Houghton
Lake
Area
you
come
across
a
giant
mosquito
with
an
8’
wingspan.
It
is
just
the
artistic
creation
of
Spicer’s
newest
employee,
Mark
Moyer.
After
attending
the
Center
for
Creative
Studies,
one
of
the
nations
leading
art
schools,
Mark
Moyer
dabbled
with
many
different
career
ideas.
“My
first
love
is
art
and
sculpture,
says
Mark,
“
I’ve
created
large
scale
insects
with
giant
wingspans,
and
even
thought
about
being
a
art
teacher.”
But
it
was
his
love
of
his
property
in
Fredrick
and
his
talent
in
boat
restoration
that
brought
him
to
Spicer’s
Boat
City.
“I
have
always
done
business
here
and
new
this
was
a
great
opportunity,”
stated
Mark.
Spicer’s
Boat
City
in
Houghton
Lake
has
created,
with
the
help
of
Mark,
a
total
boat
detailing
and
restoration
center
within
Spicer’s.
“We
have
wanted
to
do
this
for
a
while
but
never
had
a
resource
like
Mark
to
get
it
moving
in
the
right
direction,”
say
Phillip
Spicer,
Owner
of
Spicer’s
Boat
City,
“Mark
brings
a
great
deal
of
talent
with
his
knowledge
of
gel
coats,
upholstery
sewing
and
canvas
repair
that
we
never
had
before.”
Spicer’s
new
detailing
department
not
only
restores
boats
for
their
new
Certified
pre-owned
boat
inventory,
but
also
details
customers
boats
back
to
a
like
new
finish.
“We
have
had
tremendous
response
to
the
work
that
mark
has
done
so
far
this
year,”
states
Bob
Nicholson,
Service
Manager,
“our
customers
can’t
believe
that
the
boat
they
are
picking
up
was
the
same
one
they
drop
off.”
Spicer’s
new
detailing
department
offers
complete
boat
detailing,
including
upholstery
and
canvas
repair.
This
is
added
to
a
already
successful
service
and
sales
department
that
is
the
only
Marine
Industry
5
Star
Certified
dealer
in
the
area.

Q.
Jeremy,
How
do
I
deal
with
water
in
my
gas?

A.
Danny,
There
are
a
few
things
to
help
this
bad
situation.
If
it
is
real
bad,
drain
your
fuel
tank.
If
not
there
are
many
fuel
additives
to
remove
water
as
well
as
a
octane
boost.

Peace
of
Mind
Comes
Standard
at
Spicer's
t's
a
pre-owned
boat.
Someone
else
enjoyed
that
boat.
The
thing
that
makes
it
different
is
what
happened
to
if
after
it
came
to
Spicer's.
Spicer's
Boat
City
is
now
offering
Certified
Pre-Owned
boats
as
an
option
to
their

50
point
inspection
in
our
5-star
service
department.
All
safety
items
are
checked
as
well
as
the
motor
and
drive.
Our
detailing
department
then
buffs,
cleans,
and
fixes
anything
necessary,
including
the
canvas
and
upholstery.
If
our
technicians
believe
this
boat
is
worthy
of
a
Spicer's
Certified
label
it
is
then
given
a
strong
warranty.
Spicer's
offers
two

have
peace
of

Towing
the
Line:
Nine
Tips
for
Towing
With
the
proliferation
of
affordable
commercial
assistance
outfits
such
as
Sea
Tow
and
Tow
Boat
U.S.
plus
the
constantly
improving
reliability
of
marine
engines,
it’s
not
nearly
as
common
as
it
once
was
for
recreational
boaters
to
tow
other
boats.
That’s
a
good
thing.
Safe
towing
requires
the
right
equipment
and
a
good
bit
of
know-how,
and
it’s
best
left
to
professionals.
Occasionally,
though,
situations
still
arise
in
which
you
have
little
choice
but
to
accept
a
tow
from
a
friend
or
Good
Samaritan,
or
offer
one
yourself.
If
you
ever
find
yourself
in
one
of
those
situations,
here
are
a
few
things
to
keep
in
mind.
1.
Avoid
coming
alongside
the
other
boat.
Except
in
the
calmest
of
conditions,
coming
alongside
another
boat
is
a
recipe
for
trouble.
Wave
action
can
slam
the
boats
together,
and,
worse
yet,
crewmembers’
extremities
can
get
caught
between
them.
Instead,
throw
the
tow
line
to
the
other
boat
from
a
distance.<read

Troll

Are
you
ready
to
dock?
Great—but
before
you
get
started,
you
need
to
learn
the
lingo…
Say
you
have
a
tire
swing
in
your
back
yard—you
know
an
old
tire
hanging
on
a
rope.
Take
that
rope
off
the
swing
and
walk
to
the
dock.
In
boating
lingo,
as
soon
as
you
step
from
the
dock
to
the
boat,
that
rope
becomes
a
line.
And
the
lines
you
use
to
tie
your
boat
to
the
dock
are
called—you
guessed
it—docklines.
Nylon
is
the
most
popular
material
for
docklines.
There
are
a
couple
of
reasons
for
this.
One—
it’s
strong.
And
two—it
has
some
give—it
will
stretch
a
bit
as
your
boat
rocks
to
and
fro
at
the
dock.
Next
let’s
talk
about
construction.
There
are
two
main
types
of
nylon
docklines.Three
strand
docklines
tend
to
stretch
or
give
quite
a
bit
and
are
abrasion
resistant.
Braided
nylon
docklines
are
stronger,
come
in
lots
of
cool
colors
to
match
you
boat
and
generally
feel
more
substantial.
You’ll
probably
pay
more
for
braided
lines.
However,
they
tend
to
last
longer
then
three
strand
lines.
Docklines
come
in
different
sizes
and
