The Port of Whitman County has received a $1 million construction grant from the Washington Recreation & Conservation Office to replace three of the original 1975 docks at Boyer Park & Marina.

They will serve transient boaters, or boaters temporarily mooring their vessels at the marina without a moorage agreement. The Boyer Park & Marina estimates it will see at least 330 transient boaters throughout 2021.
The project also includes the addition of a navigation aid light for enhanced nighttime boater safety and the placement of an accessible vault toilet in the boat launch parking area.
