Lakeshore Repurposed Products

What Lakeshore Repurposed Products does

LSP, Inc. (formerly Lakeshore Products, Inc.) is a family-owned marine products manufacturer founded in 1982 and headquartered at 855 East Chicago Road, Quincy, Michigan. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes aluminum boat lifts, dock systems, and marine accessories for individual boat owners, pontoon boat owners, and personal watercraft (PWC) owners with waterfront property across the U.S. Midwest and Great Lakes region. The product portfolio spans vertical boat lifts, cantilever and vertical pontoon lifts, vertical and cantilever PWC lifts, the high-capacity PINNACLE 7500 series, canopy covers (including freestanding configurations), and complete dock systems with standard, hidden, and truss support options. Notable engineering features include a hidden welded aluminum support system accommodating 0–85 inches of water depth with adjustable width from 32 to 51 inches, and Gatorshield triple-layer zinc Flo-Coat galvanized steel posts offering four times the corrosion protection of standard galvanized steel.

The business operates an indirect, channel-only go-to-market model: LSP sells exclusively through a network of full-service dealers supported by four named regional distributors — Big Rivers, Ltd. (Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri), Brainerd Recreational Supply (Minnesota), Great Lakes Marine (Michigan), and Donovan Marine, Inc. (New York, New Hampshire, Vermont). Pricing is not publicly disclosed, no revenue figures are available, and there are no documented funding rounds, acquisitions, leadership changes, or AI/technology platform investments in the source material. The company's main commercial differentiator is a 25/2 year limited warranty (upgraded from 10/2 years effective January 1, 2026) backed by four decades of continuous family-owned manufacturing.

Broad incumbents

• EZ Dock: EZ Dock is a larger established manufacturer of modular floating dock and PWC port systems serving residential, commercial, and municipal waterfront customers worldwide. It competes with LSP's dock and PWC lift product lines from a broader, more diversified platform perspective.

Direct peers

• ShoreMaster: ShoreMaster is a direct competitor manufacturing aluminum boat lifts, dock systems, and waterfront accessories, with deep roots in the Midwest/Great Lakes region and overlapping dealer networks. Both companies serve the same residential waterfront customer with comparable vertical/cantilever lift and modular dock product lines.
• Tommy Docks: Tommy Docks designs and sells aluminum sectional dock systems and accessories targeted at residential lakefront owners, with strong distribution across the Midwest and Great Lakes region. Its dock system product category directly overlaps LSP's dock systems line, and both target the same DIY and dealer-installed waterfront customer.
• RGC (Reimann & Georger Corporation): RGC manufactures boat lifts and hoists for marine and industrial applications, including aluminum residential lifts that directly overlap LSP's vertical and cantilever lift lines. Both companies supply independent dealers serving waterfront property owners across the United States.
• Hewitt Marine (Power Lift by Hewitt): Hewitt manufactures hydraulic and aluminum boat lifts under the Power Lift brand alongside dock and waterfront equipment, directly competing with LSP in boat lift and dock categories. Both companies are family-founded manufacturers serving residential waterfront owners through dealer networks.
• Hi-Tide Boatlifts: Hi-Tide manufactures aluminum boat lifts, PWC lifts, and dock hardware for residential and commercial waterfront customers in the US Southeast and Gulf Coast, overlapping with LSP's product categories of vertical and cantilever lifts. While its geographic focus is different, it competes for the same boat-lift OEM buyer and serves as a comparable private US aluminum lift maker.
• FLOE International: FLOE International is a direct competitor based in Minnesota that designs and manufactures aluminum boat lifts, dock systems, and PWC lifts, competing head-to-head with LSP in the Upper Midwest. Both target the same freshwater lakefront customer with similar vertical boat lift and roll-in dock architectures.
• Golden Boat Lifts: Golden Boat Lifts designs and fabricates aluminum boat lifts, including four-pile vertical and cantilever configurations, serving residential waterfront customers in the Southeast US. Its product architecture mirrors LSP's vertical and cantilever lift families, making it a comparable peer despite regional differences.

Emerging players

• Wave Armor: Wave Armor manufactures roto-molded floating dock systems and PWC ports as an emerging alternative to traditional aluminum dock and lift systems. While its core technology differs from LSP's aluminum, it competes for the same waterfront owner's dock and PWC-storage budget, making it a partial emerging competitor.

Others

• Dock Edge + DockBuilder Plus: Dock Edge supplies dock and marine hardware accessories (bumpers, cleats, ladders, edging) that complement a boat lift or dock system purchase. While it does not manufacture complete lifts, it is an adjacent ecosystem participant competing for share-of-wallet at the same residential waterfront customer.
