Seattle Boat Co. announced yesterday that it acquired Bayside Marine in Everett, Wash., extending the dealership’s presence into North Puget Sound and further expanding its network of businesses across the Pacific Northwest.
“Bayside has built something special in Everett,” Elizabeth Bohling, co-president of Seattle Boat Co., said in a press release. “Their team has decades of experience understanding what North Puget Sound boaters want, from fishing and saltwater cruising to the service that keeps those boats on the water. That expertise is a natural complement to what we have built at Seattle Boat Company, and it gives us an opportunity to bring together two strong teams while expanding what we can offer boaters across the region.”
Seattle Boat Co. represents Cobalt, Malibu and Pursuit in western Washington. Bayside Marine specializes in preowned boats and is an authorized dealer for Yamaha and Mercury outboards, EZ Loader trailers and Tuff Trailers. The release said Bayside will retain its local team and identity as part of the broader Seattle Boat Co. network.
