Seven new dealerships receive industry certification

CHICAGO – Seven more boat dealerships recently became certified under the Grow Boating Initiative’s Marine Industry Dealership Certification program, the National Marine Manufacturers Association reported earlier this week.

All newly-certified dealerships participated in Marine Industry Dealership Certification Launch Workshops across the country prior to earning their “certified” status. They include:

  • A to Z Boatworks, Scituate, Mass.
  • Allen Harbor Marine Service, Harwich Port, Mass.
  • Atwood Lake Boats, Mineral City, Ohio
  • The Boat Broker, Lake Havasu City, Ariz.
  • Crews N II Outboard, Jacksonville, Fla.
  • Port Harbor Marine, South Portland, Maine
  • South Shore Marine, Huron, Ohio
  • “These seven dealerships now join the ranks of many others already aboard the dealership certification bandwagon,” says Phil Keeter, president of the Marine Retailers Association of America. “The Marine Industry Dealership Certification status confirms their individual commitments to servicing customers in the best possible manner and improving the boating experience across the board.”

    A total of 276 dealerships have enrolled in the Marine Industry Dealership Certification program to date. There are 54 that have completed the certification process and earned the “Marine Industry Certified” designation.

    Additional launch workshops are being planned for the fall, and details including dates and locations will be posted on GrowBoating.org shortly. Any group of marine dealers interested in booking a launch meeting for their area should contact Grow Boating dealer certification program manager Elizabeth McAllister at (312) 946-6500; emcallister@DealerCertification.org.
