Bentley Pontoons has hired Joe Antonneau as vice president of sales and marketing, the company said in a statement.

Antonneau has more than 35 years of experience in the marine industry, with long stints at Yamaha Marine and Mercury Marine; previously, he was SVP of sales and marketing at Crest Pontoons.

“Working alongside our leadership team, I look for Joe to continue building and executing our plan while keeping our company’s momentum, products, quality and customer service best-in-class,” said president Ryan Marcott.

Bentley sales manager Tedd Moore added: “[We] have been growing at a tremendous pace and demand for the product is at an all-time high. Joe’s prior sales and marketing experience will be an invaluable asset in the continued growth of Bentley Pontoons.”

Under new ownership since the summer of 2017, Bentley has manufactured pontoons in Lexington, S.C., since 2002.

“I’m thrilled to be back at it and joining the Bentley team,” Antonneau said. “I can’t wait to roll my sleeves up and help bring it to the next level.”
