Mart Marine Ribbon Cutting! 🥳

Last week, we celebrated the legacy and future of Mart Marine with a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house honoring new owner Michelle Finnegan.

Family-owned and operated since 1969, Mart Marine has been a trusted name in boating for generations — and that tradition continues with full-service repairs, knowledgeable staff, and a great selection of fishing and hunting boats and pontoons.

Boating season is almost here, which means now’s the perfect time to upgrade or finally get the boat you’ve always wanted. From electronics and trolling motors to everything you need for life on the water, Mart Marine has you covered.

Congratulations to Michelle and the entire Mart Marine team on this exciting new chapter!
