Hammond Marina Customers
March 2007

  • With the Hammond Marina closed for the 2007 season while casino expansion takes place, we understand that you have either temporarily or permanently relocated your boat.  Many of our Hammond customers were accustomed to our dockside repair services, but we also repair on-site at most Chicago and NW Indiana marinas as well.  So give LandCraft Marine a call and we will repair your boat wherever you have it docked!  We will be glad to continue the same great service to you and your boat.  If your boat is trailorable, we always offer year-round in-shop repair services at our facility in Crestwood, IL.

Chicago Air & Water Show 2005 - Lake Michigan
August 20-21, 2005

  • The crew at LandCraft spent a relaxing day on the lake after a long and hot summer of hard work at the marinas.  We had a great time and enjoyed a barbeque on the lake, loud music, and the great Air Show.

                                         


Car Quest World Of Wheels - McCormick Place
January 28-30, 2005

  • The show was a great success!  Our sound systems brought a lot of life to the show and provided music entertainment to all of our neighbors.  During demonstrations of our sound system on Saturday, our subs proved to be too much bass for McCormick Place's structure - We shut down the escalators TWICE because the sensors thought there was an earthquake!  On top of that, we were shaking dust off of the ceiling rafters and onto many show cars, so we had to quiet down for the rest of the weekend.  Our display was such a hit that our competitors stopped by to try to get some sound level and sound quality tips!  We had many people sign up to win LandCraft Gift Certificates and we met a lot of great people.  Keith, Andy P., Mike, Christine, Andy H., Ray, and Justin put together a great display and helped make the show very successful.

                           


Chicago Police Marine Unit Benefit Cruise - Aboard Mystic Blue at Navy Pier
September 19, 2004

  • We spent an evening aboard a benefit cruise for a fallen police officer's family.  We met up with many great people and celebrated in remembrance.

                           


 Chicago Boat & RV Show - McCormick Place
 January 21-25, 2004

  • LandCraft was the only specialized Marine Audio/Video Authorized Sales and Installation booth in the show.  We offer the marine market both water resistant and waterproof audio equipment as well as custom designed enclosures, connectors, and the like.  The show was very successful and LandCraft gained many loyal customers.
