As one of the owners of Lake Placid Marine, Alan could quite literally be anywhere inside the facility or outside in the boat yard.

He's always good for a story or two...he enjoys watersports and rumor has it that he's a pretty decent skier.
Sometimes he's helping customers on the retail floor or in the parts department. As Vice President and General Manager, he covers sales and customer service, but frequently helps out all around. He earned his Associate of Science degree at Florida Keys Community College in Marine Propulsion. He has also earned certificates in Gasoline Engine Technology and Marine Diesel Technology.
