Marine Accessories Corporation acquires Fishmaster
Marine Accessories Corporation has added Fishmaster T-tops to its portfolio of OEM and aftermarket brands.
Fishmaster is a Cumming, Ga.-based company that builds patented folding aftermarket T-Tops for boats to accommodate low bridge clearance and storage. Although T-tops are typically associated with fishing boats, the Fishmaster top can be installed on center console boats to afford shade, weather protection and additional storage. Fishmaster Founder Bill Bierbower started the company in 2006 following the sale of his previous company, Monster Tower, also to MAC.
“The Fishmaster acquisition is another step in the execution of MAC’s strategy to expand our direct aftermarket business,” said Rick Reyenger, MAC’s chief executive officer. “Additionally, by promoting Fishmaster globally through Marine Accessories Europe B.V. — our marketing and distribution office in The Netherlands — we will also make progress relative to our international growth strategy.”
Reyenger said MAE showcased the product at the 2017 Dusseldorf Boat Show in Germany and it resulted in numerous sales and dealer distribution inquiries.
Fishmaster also offers accessories that can be affixed to its T-tops including grab rails, rod holders, electronics boxes and more. For more information, visit www.Fishmaster.com.
