Although many of us operate in different states, our customers and clients often adventure beyond home. They live, travel, cruise, and keep second or third homes across state lines. They rely on trusted marine and waterfront professionals wherever they go and often ask the pros from home base if they have contacts where they are going. Networking beyond our local markets strengthens referrals and improves service. It also ensures our clients are taken care of no matter where the water leads them. In this industry, strong relationships shouldn’t stop at the county or state borders.
The true value of networking and building trusted connections lies within always knowing you have got your customers and your business covered. If you are in the marine or waterfront industries and haven’t joined the Marine Power Network yet, our reach is growing, check us out!
We have been meeting at the beautiful St. Petersburg Yacht Club in downtown on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 4:30-5:30+ upstairs at the Tiki Bar. If you are interested in attending or would like to be included on our email list please reach out! (Sometimes we have to switch locations.)

We’re a group of dedicated marine and waterfront professionals who show up with purpose – to build meaningful connections, grow our businesses, and ensure we always have trusted partners we can rely on to take care of our clients. Additionally, sometimes we have guests that are outside our marine sector that show up to network and support us. We appreciate them too and all we ask is they bring another marine professional with them as their ticket of entry.
No matter what state or region you operate out of, we want to connect with you too! If you work in or around the marine or a waterfront industry, we want you to come join us next month! Check out our growing group on Facebook – Marine Power Network. Additionally, find out more by watching the video below! #marinepowernetwork Please feel free to share these posts and our flyers!
