New Buffalo and Harbor Country Marine Market

New Buffalo's marina is a frequent layover point for vessels making north-south Lake Michigan passages and a home port for a steady mix of powerboats and sailboats owned by Chicago-area and southwest Michigan buyers. The used vessel market in Harbor Country moves quickly during the spring and early summer buying season.

TruMark Marine schedules pre-purchase surveys around this market's compressed transaction windows and delivers reports that give buyers and their lenders what they need to close on time.
