BRP announced yesterday that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Manitou Pontoon assets in Lansing, Mich., to members of the Marcott family, owners of Bentley Pontoons, based in South Carolina. The transaction follows BRP’s decision to sell its marine businesses to focus on its core powersports activities.
The Manitou sale announcement follows the sale of Alumacraft, which was finalized during the second quarter of BRP’s fiscal 2026, and an agreement for the sale of the Telwater business, still subject to closing conditions.
“We are committed to ensuring the continuity of the Manitou brand, and we intend to further its reputation for performance, quality and service within the industry, while continuing to support dealers’ needs and success,” Dennis Marcott said in a statement. “We will keep building Manitou boats in the existing Lansing facility and are looking forward to welcoming talented employees as part of the team.”
The transaction is expected to close during BRP’s third quarter.
