Michael

Cosmetic Technician

Michael was born and raised in Charlevoix, Michigan, surrounded by the lakes and shorelines that shaped his appreciation for boats from an early age. He is IDA Certified through the International Detailing Association and Durslic Certified in ceramic coating, bringing a high level of care and precision to every project he touches.

Family is at the center of Michael’s world. He and his wife have five grown sons, along with a lively crew of four dogs and two cats. Outside of work, he’s a big Michigan football fan and never misses a chance to cheer on his team.

At Boyne Boat Yard, Michael is especially drawn to hull restorations, where he can combine technical skill with an eye for cosmetic detail.
