Seth Marshall, an 12th-grade student, is making a splash as a rising star in the world of boat docking. Piloting the Heather Nicole II, a 30-foot vessel powered by a 320 HO CAT engine, Seth began competing in 2022 and has quickly made a name for himself.

As the son of champion boat docker Jamie Marshall and the grandson of legendary Dwight "The King of the Docks" Marshall, Seth is proudly continuing his family's legacy. He’s also part of a new generation of dockers and is friends with fellow teen competitors, creating a tight-knit community of young talent pushing the sport forward.

Seth’s competitive runs are a family affair. His older brother loves to serve as his safety man and first mate, ensuring everything runs smoothly during events. When not competing, Seth spends his summers helping his dad work on boats at Marshall's Marine and cherishing time on the water.

His childhood summers on Smith Island with his grandparents fostered a deep love for the Chesapeake Bay, where he developed the skills and passion that drive his success today. Seth is not just competing; he’s shaping the future of boat docking alongside his peers.
