MarineMax backs Boatzon

Recreational boat and yacht retailer MarineMax has invested in Boatzon , a one-stop-shop online boat retail, insurance, and financing platform.

Founded in 2021, Boatzon provides marine enthusiasts ‘easy’ access to boats, engines, trailers, marine products and more. Consumers can browse, finance, insure, purchase and arrange delivery of boats and marine products entirely online. Insurance is offered through Boatzon’s partner company, Boatzon Insurance Group, a fully licensed insurance agency appointed with ‘top marine insurance carriers’.

“We are excited to invest in Boatzon. The partnership aligns well with our higher margin business growth and diversification goals. It enhances our industry leading innovative technologies and digital tools. Boatzon advances the industry and complements our customer focused efforts to provide great experiences so boaters can enjoy time with family and friends on the water. We are pleased to welcome Bryan Lenett, Michael Muchnick and the entire Boatzon team as we lead the industry with the best products and services.” – W. Brett McGill, CEO and President of MarineMax.

“Being avid boaters, as well as technology entrepreneurs, we realized that the marine industry lacked the online customer experiences many industries offer and consumers have come to expect. When we set out to develop Boatzon, we wanted to incorporate best in class technology for the marine industry to provide an experience that offers a dramatically different end-to-end customer experience. We could not think of a better partnership than with MarineMax, a pioneer in the industry, who continues to push the boundaries of the consumer experience.” – Bryan Lenett, Boatzon’s CEO.
