Top 100 Dealers

 

The recreational boating industry’s elite members celebrated the launch of the reimagined Boating Industry Top 100 Awards during a black-tie gala on Nov. 16, 2022 on the final evening of the Boating Industry ELEVATE SUMMIT in Orlando, Fla.

Entering the 18th year of the Top 100 in 2022, the program now honors the best of the best across the entire boating industry, celebrating the 40 Under 40, Women Making Waves and the Top Dealers across North America.

“Our industry continues to navigate new challenges and thrive in unprecedented successes every day. Across every segment we continue to evolve every day to meet new customer demands and help everyone make new memories out on the water,” Boating Industry editor-in-chief and Top 100 program director Adam Quandt said. “And as our industry has evolved over the years, so has Boating Industry and now the Top 100 Awards program truly reflects that growth.”

As a continuation of the original roots of the Top 100 program, Boating Industry also honored the 2022 Top Dealers during the Top 100 Awards celebration.

The Top Dealers portion of the Top 100 Awards is the only independent ranking of boat dealers in North America.

The list recognizes dealerships that are unsurpassed in business operations, professionalism, marketing tactics, customer service and more. The Boating Industry Top 100 has recognized the Top Dealers in North America every year since 2005.

“This year’s Top Dealers program brought on a stack of new applicants and new competition to the program along with very strong returns from multi-year winners. And we’re very excited to highlight the accomplishments of all, as new dealers join the ranks and others join forces to become one,” Quandt said.

Regal & Nautique of Orlando was named as the 2022 Dealer of the Year.

From a completely reimagined sales strategy implemented in 2021, to the addition of a new boat line and segment all together, paired with continued facilities improvements and expansion, no stone was left unturned for Regal & Nautique of Orlando’s year.

With a continuous commitment to building and training the ultimate team, Regal & Nautique of Orlando knows the importance of investing in its team and backs it up with an impressive list of training efforts, both internal and external.

At the top of all of its 2021 efforts, Regal & Nautique never missed a moment to improve its customer experience, consistently aiming for the best experience for all, no matter the cost. Leading customers to choose Regal & Nautique of Orlando time and time again and setting up the organization for unprecedented success well into the future.
