New Ontario Sailing Partnership – Kropf Industrial

Ontario Sailing and Kropf

July 9, 2024

Ontario Sailing is excited to welcome Kropf Industrial as our official “Dock and Boat Handling Equipment Supplier of choice to Ontario Sailing”. Located in Seguin Ontario (near Parry Sound), the large manufacturing facility now recognized as Kropf Industrial Inc. was established as a small backyard welding shop in 1977 by their former President, Mr. Peter Kropf. Through innovative design and quality products, the operation has grown to include 40,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing capacity and an international reach. Innovation and quality remain the defining characteristics of their products today.

KROPF CONOLIFT marine hydraulic trailer division manufactures hydraulic boat trailers with load capacities ranging from 3 – 120 tons. They offer fully approved highway versions, as well as hardworking yard and self-propelled trailer designs. Other products include straddle carriers, galvanized boat storage stands, and hydraulic trailer tugs.

Since 1988, the KROPF MARINE floating dock division has been supplying premium docking systems and floating breakwaters for commercial marine applications and residential use. Superior design and uncompromising quality have established their steel tube floating dock systems and breakwaters as the industry standard for northern harbours and beyond. 

Glenn Lethbridge, Ontario Sailing’s Executive Director said, “I have been a fan of Kropf built docks for over 20 years when I spent time at the Buffalo Canoe Club”. “Our Clubs have grown to trust the team at Kropf for their docks and boat handling equipment”.

“We are incredibly excited to partner with Ontario Sailing and support the continued success of their members,” said Jordan Kropf Sales Manager at Kropf Industrial”. We look forward to working with Ontario Sailing to support the valuable work they do, as well as to help build our brand in Ontario not only on the commercial side but also for members who may need a residential dock for their cottage or home”
