About Us

In 1954, Merton High started selling Mercury Motors in a gas station in downtown Decatur, Michigan. He saw a vision, and it just kept growing. In 1974, "SEE HIGH BEFORE YOU BUY" was coined and became his signature slogan. High's Marine is still a family business where currently there are three generations still working today. Mark High, Missy (High) and her husband Brian Klimczak and Mike High work hard to maintain a culture of family values and ensure all staff understand the customers needs are the ultimate priority. Always willing to treat customers as family and going the extra mile when possible. We take pride in knowing many of our customers have used High's Marine for decades for all their boating needs. Our goal is to continue the tradition of keeping families on the lake through new and used boat sales, and also repowering marine engines. Our mechanics have extensive knowledge, and are willing to pass that knowledge to the customer- a phenomena not always present in our industry.

High's Marine is located in Decatur, Michigan. Conveniently 6.5 miles from Exit 56 on I-94. We are just 30.9 miles West of Kalamazoo, Michigan and just 39.9 miles North East of South Bend, Indiana. We are an authorized dealer for 2024 Bennington Pontoons, 2024 Lund Fishing Boats, and Mercury Marine Engines. Our stock of Used and Brokerage Pontoons and boats is ever changing, so please stop by often. We work closely with The Cover Girl, who customizes in boat covers, alterations and repairs. 

This year we are celebrating 70 years of service!  See High's Before You Buy!!!
