Start with a real need
DockaDrink grew out of a beach-day problem Terry experienced himself. Practical convenience is the reason it exists.
Meet Terry Lawson
It started with a drink in the sand.
On a beach trip with his wife in 1999, Terry had nowhere convenient to set his drink. He made a little spot for it in the sand. When he picked it back up and found the bottom covered in sand, he thought there had to be a better way.
A lifelong East Tennessean and longtime builder, Terry approached the idea much like he approaches construction: start with a vision and keep refining it until it becomes something real.
His first hand-drawn idea became a CAD drawing, then 3D-printed prototypes. He spent years refining the design until the idea he could picture became the finished DockaDrink.
