Brett McGill, Chief Executive Officer and President of MarineMax stated, "We have great appreciation and respect for Jimmy Harvell and his team and admire how effectively they operate their business. Our cultures and passion for customer service, as well as the boating lifestyle, are perfectly aligned. This strategic acquisition allows our existing Dallas area operation to join forces with those of the Texas MasterCraft team, creating the most powerful customer servicing dealership organization in the important north Texas towboat market. We welcome the Texas MasterCraft Team into the MarineMax family and are excited about our future growth.”
