Andress Boat Works Gas Dock, Rockport

Duncan Rawlinson photographed this lakeside service building at Andress Boat Works in Rockport, Ontario, surrounded by mature shade trees. The white structure with its dark roof sits at the water’s edge, serving as both a gas dock and ice cream shop for boaters and visitors. A yellow umbrella marks the outdoor seating area on the wooden deck, while a pontoon boat drifts in the calm water beyond. Dappled sunlight filters through the canopy, casting soft shadows across the mown grass sloping toward the shore. The far shore stretches low and wooded beneath a partly cloudy sky. This view shows a functional piece of small-town waterfront infrastructure, the kind of unpretentious stop where people fuel up and take a break between rides on the lake.
