Put the restaurants (and maybe a coffee shop at the end of the pier) in the old ballroom. Put the boat showroom somewhere else.
Like I said, the other businesses will follow.
I know this works. You can't believe what happened to where I live in Huntington Beach, CA. They did this in our downtown area years ago, and it turned it from a run down surf town to a world class tourist center.
