Retail Boat Sales Facility
“Two family-owned businesses have teamed up to produce a $7 million marine and sporting goods mini-mall on Daniel Island with all the flair of a one-stop shopping experience at a national retailer. Summerville-based Scout Boats Inc. and Charleston-based Hanckel Marine Sales & Services teamed up on Sportsman’s Island, a multi-store center on Clements Ferry Road, said Steve Potts, president of Scout Boats.
On eight acres, visible from Interstate 526, an 800-foot privately built road and a 150-foot privately built bridge provide access to a site with a roughly 40,000-square-foot retail center. In the future, the site also includes a boat service center and a restaurant.
The landscaping and façade are the focal point at the center, which include a lamp-lined bridge, a half-acre pond with fountains and palm trees, and the Lowcountry look of the building.
CEMS Engineering|Architecture provided Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, and Structural Engineering services for this facility.
