Canal Boatyard is user friendly to both marine professionals and do-it-yourselfers. Coastal Marine Engine, the Volvo Penta Power Center for the Pacific Northwest, calls Canal home and provides decades of engine service experience. Emerald Harbor Marine and Pacific Fiberglass are both located on site, and between the two of them nearly anything can be painted, installed, fabricated, wired or fixed. For the DIY crowd, Canal has quick access to the area’s best marine stores, machine shops, hardware stores, riggers and brokers. A Starbucks and a Fred Meyer are a walk across the parking lot. Ballard’s great restaurants and entertainment are just up the street.
