"This acquisition marks a pivotal step in Vision Marine's strategy to scale and compete at the highest level of the global boating industry," said Alexandre Mongeon, CEO of Vision Marine. "The market is entering a new phase-one defined by innovation in propulsion, increasing demand for integrated solutions, and rising expectations from both OEMs and consumers. By joining forces with Nautical Ventures, we gain immediate access to a proven retail and service network, allowing us to accelerate the rollout of next-generation marine technology. Nautical Ventures' founder & CEO Roger Moore has been a mentor and friend for over a decade, and I am honored to carry forward this shared vision under one banner."
Roger Moore added: "Nautical Ventures has always focused on bringing the best products and experiences to boaters. Our partnership with Vision Marine allows us to stay true to that mission while expanding what's possible. Electric propulsion is no longer a future concept-it's here, and it's ready."
Nautical Ventures operates nine high-volume retail locations across Florida, including two flagship waterfront showrooms, providing Vision Marine with direct access to one of the most concentrated and active recreational boating markets in the world. The dealership offers a wide portfolio of prestigious marine brands including Axopar, Beneteau, Brabus, Edgewater, Flite, Highfield, Hobie, Mercury, NorthStar, Seabob, Smokercraft, Suzuki, Tohatsu, Wellcraft, and Yamaha, serving a diverse customer base from high-performance boaters to luxury yacht owners and international resort fleets.
