Dock Deals Launches Curated Membership Platform to Filter through the Noise in the Used Boat Market

Dock Deals, the popular Instagram account with a cult following and dedicated community, officially launches its membership platform. Beyond just a marketplace, it serves as a central hub for those seeking quality in the used boat market. From rugged sportfishermen and cruisers to classic center consoles, trawlers, Downeast survivors, and liveaboards, the platform identifies high-value finds for the everyday buyer. The mission remains rooted in the belief that boating should be for everyone.
Detroit, Michigan - Dock Deals, the emerging leader in curated classic boat listings, has officially announced the launch of its new membership-based platform, The Member's Dock. Designed as a high-trust alternative to the fractured and overwhelming used boat marketplace, the platform leverages a proprietary filter to ensure all listings are vetted for quality, realistic pricing, and long-term resale value.

Addressing the "Marketplace Fatigue" in Boating The used boat market has historically been plagued by unresponsive sellers, misleading descriptions, and wildly unrealistic pricing on platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, leading major platforms, broker sites, and forums. For the average enthusiast, finding a quality vessel often requires sifting through thousands of overpriced production boats.

Dock Deals was created to solve this "discovery" problem. By acting as a curated aggregator, the platform identifies the top 1% of available deals across the web, focusing on "survivor" boats that offer the best value for middle-class families, enthusiasts, and collectors alike.

A Mission-Driven Approach to Accessibility Founded by Scott Stevenson, Dock Deals has grown from a "cult classic" Instagram community of well over 100,000 followers into a fully functional digital ecosystem for quality used boats. From vintage Bertram sportfishermen and classic Boston Whalers to high end Downeasts, Trawlers and Liveaboards, Dock Deals offers a diverse selection for every type of mariner.

"We believe that there is a perfect boat and deal out there for everyone. Boating should not be reserved for the rich," says Stevenson. "We've built a community that acts as your knowledgeable 'boat guy' friend, calling out model and manufacturer-specific issues and pain points, ensuring that our members have the upper hand in a competitive market".

The Member's Dock: Exclusive Tools for Active Buyers To remain accessible to all enthusiasts while providing elite tools for serious buyers, Dock Deals offers a hybrid model:

*
Public Deal Access: The general public retains access to a curated weekly list of boat deals via the website and Instagram feed, ensuring the "Middle Class" mission stays intact.

*
The Member's Dock: A premium tier for active buyers that provides deeper market access and exclusive financial perks, including:

*
24-Hour Early Access: Members receive a 24-hour head start on all new listings before they are shared with the general public or posted to social media.

*
High-Volume Member Feed: Members gain access to an additional 40+ listings per month-exclusive "deep cuts" and niche finds that are never posted to the public Instagram feed.

*
Vetted "Price Dictation": Every boat is reviewed by a human team to filter out overpriced production junk and highlight quality-built, well-maintained survivors.

*
At-Cost Merchandise: In a commitment to the community, paid members receive access to premium boat soap and gear at the company's cost, removing traditional retail markups.
