West Marine Taylor is located a few blocks from the Detroit River, which stretches 28 miles from Lake St. Clair to Lake Erie of the Great Lakes in Michigan. The river is a boater's playground with plenty of waterways to explore, fish, sail and paddle. West Marine Taylor is the area's trusted source for boat accessories and supplies they need for an enjoyable day on the water.

Boating

Michigan ranks among the top three states in the US with the most registered boat owners. The Great Lakes are home to the two largest boat parties in the nation, including the Raft Off at nearby Muscamoot Bay and Jobbie Nooner at Gull Island. Both parties attract more than 100,000 boaters every year. Our experienced staff can recommend boat parts, safety gear, navigation tools, marine electronics and towable tubes to outfit any boating adventure.

Sailing

Lake sailing is very popular in the area for boaters looking for a leisurely cruise or a scenic view of Detroit's skyline. For nearly 100 years, sailors have been racing on Lake Erie at night in the annual historic Mills Cup Race, testing their seamanship. West Marine specializes in sailboat hardware, rigging and sailing gear.

Fishing

Anglers across the country come to the Detroit River for word-class walleye fishing. Walleye put up a good fight and are fun to catch. Other fishing species biting in the area include bass, perch and bluegill. Local anglers trust West Marine Taylor for the best fishing gear, nets, rods, reels and tackle.

Kayaking

The canals around the river offer easy paddling for kayakers looking to explore the Detroit area from a water vantage point. There are 3,000 miles of water trails to paddle. Let us outfit your next kayaking adventure with the right gear.
