Management
Bob
Holley - Owner / Manager
Bob purchased Sturgeon Point Marina in September 1968 at the age of nineteen with the support of his parents Jack and Doris Holley. Since then under his guidance Sturgeon Point Marina has grown from a small one building shop, into a large five acre bustling marina which includes a large showroom, many buildings, a vast selection of boats, seadoos, jet boats and over two hundred motors, an extensive shop able to handle any project, four boat storage buildings, a launch ramp and docking for over one hundred and thirty boats. As the owner he has always strived to keep Sturgeon Point Marina a family run business. His wife Susan helps him take care of the paperwork while his two sons Charles and Edward have taken after his love of motors and spend most of their days working in the shop.
Parts
Brian Cumming - Parts
Brian has been with us since late April. Before coming to Sturgeon Point Marina Brian ran his own TV repair and satellite installation business. He found the transition from television equipment to marine equipment easy because he is mechanically inclined. Brian now helps in the parts dept organizing orders, filing, and customer service.
Shop
Charles
Holley - Head Mechanic
Charles (Bob's Son) has been working in the shop since he was eight years old which gives him over eighteen years of experience. Over the years he has seen just about everything that can happen to a motor or boat. His knowledge and experience helps him fix your problem quickly and effortlessly. On top of being an excellent mechanic he keeps the shop running and everyone working while his father is taking care of all the office work.
Edward
Holley - Mechanic
Ed (Bob's Son) like his brother started working in the shop when he was eight. He has inherited his father's natural skill for machinery and can figure out a solution to any mechanical problem. The attention he pays to detail and the extra effort he puts into his work can been seen in a unit when he is done. He can take an old rusted car and make it run and shine like the day it rolled off the assembly line.
Ian
Kerr - Mechanic
Ian has been fixing engines for our customers since march of 2003. He has many years of experience since he has been working with engines since he was a child. His love for engines can be seen in the quality of his work. His true love (besides his wife) is cars and the speed that comes with them. When he is not working here if he is not under a hood of a car trying to get every bit of power out of it he can be found looking through car or trader magazines looking for his next project.
Randy
Applegate - Maintenance
Randy has taken care of the Marina since 1991. A few of his many responsibilities include maintaining and repairing the docks, painting and fixing up trailers and keeping all the boats and seadoos we sell spotless. Working here at the marina is the perfect job for Randy because of his love for fishing and for the boats that take him to them.
Office
Susan
Holley - Accounts payable/payroll
Susan (Bob's Wife) takes care of the piles and piles of government paper work that the marina goes through every week and makes sure the bills are paid
Julia
Clement - Shop Administrator / Receptionist
Julie has been apart of the Sturgeon Point office since September 1990. She makes sure that all the repair jobs get the attention they deserve. Julie is also the receptionist for the marina, so she is the first person that you will talk to when you call us. She and her husband love classic cars and are often at the Wasaga Beach car shows.

- Web Site Coordinator/Licensing
Marlee has been with the Marina since November 2006. Her job is to keep the Marina's Web Site up to date with new products and inventory and getting all the licenses for your boats, PWCs, trailer's and snowmobiles. When she is not at work she's shopping!!!!!
Gloria

Gloria (Charlie's wife) has been at the Marina since November 2007. Her job here is to make sure all the bills are paid. She sometimes is the bubbly voice you hear on the other end of the phone as well. Gloria has been married to Charlie Holley for five years and they have 2 beautiful daughters. When she is not at work buried in paperwork, she is at home baking cookies with the girls.
