About us
We're the Wakemans
I’m Bret, and I began working with SeaDek in 2018 after spending the better part of a decade in business for myself as a general contractor. In 2020, Jenn joined me, leaving her insurance industry job of 15 years to handle the business’s operations. Together, we are the team behind Great Lakes Castaway, a company that specializes in providing top-of-the-line SeaDek products and exceptional customer service.
Since we started, Great Lakes Castaway has grown exponentially through a tight-knit network of end-user customers, marinas, dealerships, and boat builders. Our top priority is our customers’ satisfaction. We strive to deliver an exceptional customer service experience alongside a state-of-the-art product in SeaDek. Our ultimate goal is to leave those that we work with not as customers, but as friends.
At Great Lakes Castaway, we pride ourselves on our commitment to customer satisfaction. We work tirelessly to ensure that our customers are completely happy with their SeaDek products. We don’t just see our customers as clients – we see them as friends. This is why we go above and beyond to create a positive customer service experience, providing personalized attention and support to each and every person we work with.
With my extensive experience in the field, I bring my expertise and knowledge to the table, and Jenn, with her strong background in operations, helps Great Lakes Castaway streamline its business processes and ensure that everything runs smoothly. Together, we have built a company that is focused on providing the best possible products and services to our customers. We would love to discuss your SeaDek project with you!
