ABOUT US


DOUG HEIN
(Co Owner)

I have been selling on eBay for over 5 years now. I am new to the power sport arena, but have brought all of the knowledge that I have from selling other items with me. I have a growing passion for sleds and boats. If the sun is out and the water is calm, I can't not be out on the water. I also have a passion for wrecked, rolled, and blown machines. Seeing that unwanted or uncared for boat gets me excited. I love parting machines and finding the parts new homes in other machines. I see it as a way of keeping the sports alive; while one machine has taken it's last ride as a whole, it's parts will live on forever!



MIKE MISSAK:
(Co Owner)

Having grown up around boats, Snowmobiles, Go carts and anything motorized – the power sports have always been a love of mine. Having graduated Ripon College with a degree in Biology – to working with Pepsico as a packaging engineer I never suspected to have co-created a power sport corporation. It all started as a hobby when Doug (a childhood friend) and I would simply buy and sell some things on weekends for fun. It was about a year into this hobby when I was let go from PepsiCo and Doug and I decided to take this hobby full time. We created the business out of our garages and finally have moved into a nice establishment. BK Boats has gown exponentially in a few short years thanks for all the support and continue to watch us grow!



PETE PRZYBYSZ:
(Employee)

Well, I always grew up around sleds and bikes so it was natural for me to get into the hobby. I was riding dirtbikes and snowmbiles by the age of four and always was watching my dad and uncle work on their trucks and sleds. I never really took up sports in elementary, middle or high school it was always the things with a motor. Why toss a football around when you can be modifying a dirtbike! I was always looking for a way to step it up a notch, get that extra kick so I’m always tinkering with things. Nothing is fast enough in my opinion! I really enjoy snowmobiling, dirtbiking and boating/jetskiing. BK is my second job having to do with toys and I want to continue working them for as long as I can. I love taking apart snowmobiles, dirtbikes and quads. Kill one, resurrect many.

Stolen Gas? Are YOU protected?

DON'T BE THE NEXT VICTIM

With the costs of rising fuel prices theft has become a large concern! For cars the new fad is puncturing holes in the fuel tank to drain the liquid gold, while in boats its simply easy to just siphon or pump out the fuel!

The local FWA (Fox Waterway Agency) just had over 150 gal of fuel stolen from their fleet of boats! Protect your tank from being tampered with as well as having that fuel stolen! Contact us about a tank lock for that boat!!
