Lake Union Yacht Center, a full-service boat center, has moved its operation from north Lake Union to the LeClercq Marine Building at 1080 W. Ewing St., just east of the Ballard Bridge on north Queen Anne.
The new facility more than doubles the square footage of LUYC's old location and gives them the ability to haul out boats of 85 tons, making theirs one of the largest haul-out facilities in Seattle.
"The demand for our services is so strong that we doubled the number of employees last year and are 40 strong now," said Geo Tamblyn, owner and founder of LUYC. "We expect to grow again by 25 percent or more in the coming year," Tamblyn added.
Among other increased capabilities, the new facility will allow semi-truck deliveries of boats, something that was not feasible in the former Wallingford location. For more information, see www.luyc.net
